hello, My daughter has 5 chickens . Two days ago
Sapphire flew into neighbors yard and their dog after my daughter was able to jump the fence the dog let go and sapphire now has a big wound on her backside no puncture wound but it’s a big wound. I will post some pictures for two days now we have been cleaning it soap and water and some cleanser drying it, and then applying silver honeycourse, keeping her away from the other chickens so here are the pictures of her wound. If you have any better suggestions, please let me know.

Hi! I'm so sorry! Treat her for shock, keep her in a semi dark room and give her sweetened water to drink. Trim feathers around wound, clean with saline and slather with plain antibiotic ointment or if you have it a comfrey beeswax balm works well too. Clean twice a day for a couple of weeks. She should heal well.
