My female chicken was attacked yesterday by a visiting dog next door. She has a limp wing and a bad prolapse. I soaked her and tried putting it back inside but today she is still having a prolapse. How do I help her?

Is there any damage to her vent or wounds elsewhere? What are you using so far. Keep any prolapse tissue moist with honey or oil so that it doesn’t dry out. Honey or sugar water paste can help reduce any swelling. As long as the prolapse won’t go back in a and stay, a daily soak in warm soapy water to keep the vent clean with be necessary. Is she able to poop? Vetericyn or chlorhexidene can be good to spray on the prolapse and wounds.

You can wrap the wing loosely in normal position against the body to hold it up. Is there any wound or broken skin on the wing?
