Help! Accidentally cut my chicken's claws too short. Now it won't stop bleeding!

She's got a LOT of water right now, if anything she may be over hydrated (if that's even a thing)...

You are doing great, just keep it up.

Hey everyone,

Here's a update, Rainbow (the hen's name) has stabilized. She's not bleeding anymore (from what I can see). But she's panting a lot (she's inside.) I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to make her more comfortable.

She may be too warm and trying to stay cool.
She would be used to outside weather so the change in temp could be affecting her.
Shes acting completely normal other than the panting?

Yeah it's cold where I am and quite warm indoors. Other than the panting she is normal, just a little weak.

Keep a good eye on her.
Do you happen to have any nutri drench?
it might be a good thing to give her it.

No I don't, is there a substitute for it?

Not that I'm aware of.
I leave some on hand just in case of emergency cases.
As long as you are giving her some kind of vitamins it should help just not as fast.
Just do what you can for her and keep an eye.

A chicken that is panting is overheated. On top of injury, this is a dangerous situation. You are at risk of killing her with kindness. May I ask why you gave her a bath? A bleeding animal should not be given a bath. Not meaning to be critical, but she needs to be cooler.
