My five week old Plymouth Rock Chick escaped out of her coop. When I went into the yard she was running around pecking and I noticed a huge red scab-like thing on the back of her head. I am a first-time chicken owner and I have never gone through anything like this before. I have no idea what to do. I sprayed some Poultry Aid stuff on it (picture below) I have no idea how long she was running around the yard for, but it is not fenced in. I cannot see bone or muscle, but there is ALOT of blood, and I am so scared that I am going to hurt her. How should I be cleaning her wound, what should I be putting on it? Please help!
