Help!!Can you use Povidone Iodine on a wound?

Yep, you can just wipe your scissors with alcohol, let them dry, and snip. Wipe the flesh off with a bit of your iodine mix. The 'red parts' are not supposed to have as much blood supply & nerves. There was an article in Backyard Poultry showing how they dub chickens and cut off most of the earlobes, combes, wattles.

I have not done it myself, but it looks alot like cutting a horses frog or chestnuts off (if you're familiar with that). They are fleshy parts, but not painful for the animal to have them trimmed.
 
Well I snipped the tissue off and held pressure for a few minutes, applied the ointment. She in there complaining right now but its a nice quiet and dimmly lite room. Would you believe I'm in the medical profession! I have no problem with taking stiches out or assisting in minor surgeries but boy when it comes to my fuzzybutts that was tough to do! I'm just glad it was such a minor injury. You guys have a wonderful new year and thank you once again for all your help and advise.
