Just clipped the wings of our chickens today one of them moved and cut a little too short and it's bleeding a little, I sprayed something from tractor supply for lacerations and stuff for chickens but I don't know if it'll stop bleeding or if I have to do something
 
If it's still bleeding, you can apply some cornstarch and hold it with pressure for 2-5 minutes. Worst case (typically with a broken blood feather, not a feather cut too short) you'll have to pull the entire feather, which will stop the bleeding.
 
If it dont stop bleeding pluck it. Hold the shaft where the offending feather is in one hand and pull with the other. And if plucking dont stop the bleeding dip it in a pot of steaming water. That will loosen all the feathers. LOL Kidding of course but plucking is the way to stop bleeding . Welcome to BYC.
