Help!!! Severed wing

[TrustJesus]

One of our young chickens got her wing stuck under a gate and it appears to be partly severed. Wing hangs limp and is partly detached from body with bone sticking out. Is there a way to reattach and save it, should we try amputating it or euthanize her? How can we prevent infection if it can be saved? She surprisingly doesn’t seam to be in distress over it so I’de hate to put her down if there’s a chance she could survive.

Thanks for asking. She seams to be doing all right so far. She's eating and drinking fine and her poo is normal. She's resting more since it happened but she's still active. She's managed to get out of her box a few times so she must be well enough to jump and use her wings for balance. Our neighbor is a bee keeper and also has chickens. He suggested using raw honey on the wound to prevent infection and promote healing. I'm also putting a little apple cider vinegar in her water with a small clove of garlic. I tried bandaging the wing, but it keeps coming off so I gave up on that. It was making her loose her balance anyway. I'll try to keep you all posted. Thanks so much for all your advice!

I am so amazed! Between prayer and raw honey, she is doing great! Flesh has completely grown back over the bone and she has almost full use of her wing back. I’m so glad we didn’t give up on her.
