Thankyou!! we’ll go buy some and continue to try out best heal her !!I hope she gets better!
How should we treat for shock? Also I’m not entirely sure how much water comes out but it seems like a good amount.Get some vetericyn and spray that on the wound. You should also treat for shock. Have her in a quiet place where she will not be bothered. How much water comes out of her neck when she drinks?
To treat for shock separate her away from the others in a quite place. Put electrolytes like Nutri-Drench or Sav-A-Chick in her water. It's not good that there's water coming out of her neck, that makes it harder to get water into her. Is there any water that's not coming out of her neck and going into her crop? You might be able to tube feed her, not sure if it would work because of her neck. I'll tag some more knowledgeable people that may be of more help. @azygous @Wyorp Rock @EggcessiveHow should we treat for shock?

Update!! We initially tried new skin liquid bandage and small adhesive wound closures and neither worked to close the hole and stop food from coming out. However, we had some small stitch kits and the baby chick allowed us to stitch it closed. After that no food water was able to escape and she been in quarantine getting spoiled. Her stitches and scab just fell off and it seems the wound is raw but healedHow is your chick?
Also we did treat for shock for the first few days and applied an ointment everyday so thank-you!!Update!!
