One of the chicks got poop on her back. The others must have been pecking at it. The raised quite a ruckus chasing her around. My wife found her and though she wasn't
bleeding she put anti-biotic gel on her back where it looked red.
Now..the gel wont come out and hasn't dried over the last 18 hours. I have been carefully spreading his wing and wiping his back with cotton balls.
It is still a discolored, matted area in the feathers where the gel is or has dried.
I tried to put him back in with the rest of the group but they see it almost
immediately and start pecking.
How can I get the gel out?
Thanks for your help
