Help I've been hurt!

[lmbartosh]

My lab decided she wanted to play with one of the little 6 wk old chics (trust me this was not intentional) and she now has a quarter inch sized cut on her low back side. It appears to be scanning over already and she doesn't appear to be phased by it. I put neosporin on it but should I get her some tetracycline? Or any other remedies? I'm a newbie chicken owner and want her to heal quickly and correctly. Thanks for all your help!

This will probably do the trick. They heal remarkably well. Watch to be sure the others don't start pecking the wound. You may very well have to separate her til the wound has healed.
