DUCKS CLAW IS BLEEDING!!!!! WHAT DO I DO WITH PIC

[jelly beeny]

Lola had done something to her claw and I dont know what to do please some advice would be really appreciated

put some antiseptic on it and it will be ok

I have had it before and it usually heals by itself

Thank you, is there a specil kind I need to use or will diluted human stuff be ok?

I got rather worried as im still learning when it comes to ducks and she is one of my wee babies.

Will I need to keep her away from my other two ducks as they keep trying to grab her toe. Iv got the 3 of them inside so I can keep an eye on her.

Sorry for the questions but I knew if anyone could help me it would be the lovely people of BYC

I use neosporin (not diluted-but nothing with pain killer in it)

You can separate her but she may not be happy about that. If there is any way of separating with wire so they can see each other that would probably be best. Shouldnt take it too long to heal. Good luck to you

Cornstarch will also work to stop bleeding in a pinch - apply the powder directly to the wound and hold with some light pressure.

X2 Neosporin is the way to go!
