Chicken injuries

[LouLou44]

my hen has I think mating wounds. He cut her badly under her wings. Can anyone tell me a good way to heal her up . I’ve been putting peroxide on the wounds but flies are all around her and just wanna know if I can wrap her so the wounds stay clean. Any help?.. please

I know it looks bad please don’t judge I just want her better.

Clean the wound well then spray Blue -Kote. It will avoid the rest of the flock from pecking at it. Chickens are resilient creatures. Keep us posted with her progress.

Clean the wound with Blue-kote like @Chick-N-Fun said. I would either wrap it with vet wrap and keep her in a QT pen or put her in a cage or tote and bring her inside until she heals. You can also put some Neosporin that has no pain relief in it on the wounds.
Keep us updated

It looks like it's healing OK now, but it's going to take a while. I'd trim back some of the feathers around it to keep them out of it. Don't use peroxide anymore, it can inhibit healing. At this point I would keep her away from flies, getting flystrike would undo everything you've accomplished. Veterycin spray is very good for this, it will help keep it clean and encourage healing, you can also use plain neosporin or triple antibiotic ointment (no pain killer). I would not wrap it unless you absolutely had to, it's better open, and if any bandaging were to stick to it, you will open it back up. Here is an article with pictures that may help you to know what to expect and what you are seeing as the healing process goes on: http://richie-cunningham.com/2012/04/11/chicken-wound-healing-process/
