Chicken has infected wounds and abscess from fox attack- need advice!!!

More pics of chest wounds. I’m not sure what that brown stuff is, it wasn’t there yesterday? I tried cleaning them and it doesn’t come off. I had her lying on her side, so it looks like the wounds are on her side, but they’re really on her chest, you can see on the pic standing up. The biggest hole is where the water was leaking out.

The flash makes it look worse, here’s without flash.

So you can see again where it’s located. I’m cradling her upside down like a baby lol she stays calm that way

Does it smell?
I would get some Chlorhexdine as @Eggcessive suggested in POST#49 and begin flushing those out. The antibiotics she has suggested would be good too, I would get those ordered.

It did. It doesn’t as bad now. I agree with the vet though, the tissue doesn’t look healthy at all. Not sure what to do at this point! We started her on the antibiotics this morning! The vet prescribed Sulfatrim (TMS) pediatric suspension!?

Also I’ve been rinsing them with diluted iodine.

The brown stuff looks like the beginning of necrosis.

The effects of the antibiotics will probably take a little while to show. Just be sure to keep it clean, probably 2+ times a day.

@casportpony, @Wyorp Rock, @Eggcessive, can one of you take over? Too much for me to catch up on. I need to get to bed. It's late here.

That’s what I was thinking
