Fox Attack - Large Wound on Side

[Frizzle and Friends]

Unless you need to clean the wound(s) you can skip that part now and just reapply the ointment. Initially wounds need to be flushed and cleaned to get out any debris and as much bacteria as possible to prevent infection. If it's staying clean and there isn't discharge or anything that needs to be cleaned off, then just apply the ointment.

Sounds good to me. Just another thing added to the chicken medical kit then.
Thank you so much for the help! I'll keep posting updates as she heals.

I followed your advice with the betadine and triple antibiotic. I can also run out to the store and pick up any extra supplies.
You would suggest to leave unwrapped, even though her wing falls over it? I was worried about that irritating the wound and putting debris in it.
This morning, the electrolyte I gave her was much lower, so she definitely drank a bunch last night. She'll get some scrambled eggs this morning.
She's definitely in pain, but still alert and checking out her surroundings, so I'm taking that as a good sign.

Looks like you've done a nice job cleaning the wounds.

If she is picking on them and the gauze won't stay on very well, get an infant sized t shirt and put it on her. This will allow more air to get to the wound and you can also more easily tend to it as needed.

These types of wounds do take time to heal, so just keep up with it. You'll do fine.

Here's some inspiration. Margo was attacked by a dog, her keeper kept the thread updated and also provided photos along the way. Margo is now back with the flock and her rooster One Eyed Larry.
