Hi. So, I have a little Amaraucana hen that was pretty brutally henpecked, and her back was tore open down to bone. It's now starting to look infected. I don't have pictures of the infection, but the initial wound from a couple days ago. It should be somewhere on the post. She is being treated with a hydrogel(that contains silver), antibiotics, and an anti-microbial xeroform underneath gauze. She has been eating scrambled eggs since the day she was wounded, and as of 30 minutes ago she has been ingesting vitamin supplements. I was wondering if there is anything else I can be doing to help her get better. This is my favorite hen, and I don't want anything to happen to her. Anything, even expensive, I will try. I don't have a vet who will help chickens in the area, so that isn't an option.
