Hello! One of my roosters was attacked by a large fox this night. The fox tried to pull him out of the cage (I didn't have a better option for him this night because he's just been rescued and he's in quarantine). Fortunately, she couldn't do it because the wires are tight, so the rooster has just some light scratches. In the morning I desinfected them.
My questions are:
1. Should I give him antibiotics?
2. Are there any chances of getting rabia from the attacked chicken? I've searched well about this and from what I saw there are no chances but I'm the type of person who tend to worry a lot.
I wore gloves while treating him but I want to be sure that there's no risk.
Thank you.
 
Nothing serious because the fox couldn't pull him out of the cage. She just managed to tear out some feathers and probably scratch his comb through the cage's fence.

Thank you all for the replies!
