Chickens attacked , killed and mauled by neighbors dog-

Pics
I think these photos now can show just how much of a difference in depth there is. You can see her upper feathers already starting, her lower wound is almost closed but the middle I am pretty sure the dog not only tore but ate the fat with it. I'm thinking she may always have a concave here and then covered in feathers?
I'm now doing 2xs vs 3xs a day

Vetericyn Poultry spray
Neosporin
Scarlet oil

Though today I just did Neosporin this morning as I still have it covered with a light material that's like a bandana around her and it stays pretty wet n

It's looking so good! I'd wait until it completely closes to put her outside. It may be there in a week or it might take a little longer, only time will tell. She will probably always have a little depression there in the middle of the wound. And she may never have feathers there, but once the rest of her feathers grow back you probably won't notice.

Ugh I put her out today and she is loving it but the concave is now full of sand. I guess I will rinse her later
 
I'm thinkinng maybe she can head back outside in a week without concern of flies/maggots?

I agree, I'd keep her in until that's all healed up.

Since she got sand in it, just rinse it out. I had a hen with a wound and put her out too soon, first thing they want to do is take a dirt bath. Sure is hard to clean out, but it's doable.
