One of my chickens was attacked by a fox this morning. We thought the fox got her but she's came back 3 hours later with a couple of puncture wounds, no blood at all. There is a little bit of clear fluid oozing at the wound sites. She is acting eating/drinking/behaving normally; even laid an egg after the attack. We gave her electrolytes in her water and put peroxide/ triple antibiotic ointment on her wounds. Is there anything else I should be doing? I heard about antibiotics since she was bitten but her wounds don't look very deep so I don't know if it's necessary. We have two other chickens and they weren't bothering her so we didn't isolate her.
Any info is greatly appreciated!!
