Found this injury under one of my birds wings on both sides. It could have been there for weeks. I am assuming it’s from my giant rooster, who we are going to trim his nails today.
I cleaned out the wound as best I could and put wound spray and neosporin on it. She’s eating more scrambled eggs with nutritional yeast to help her energy.
Does she need antibiotics? I’m afraid of serious infection as it has probably been festering for weeks now. I feel horrible not catching this sooner. She was limping weeks ago, checked her feet’s and legs for injury but didn’t think to look under her wings!!!!!! No vets near me see chickens.
Any help is much appreciated as I care for these ladies greatly and want to help her heal.
