My 3 month old Polish Chick escaped out of our yard and spent a harried day and night lost in our woods. The next day I found her in the woods. Her back was torn open leaving a three wounds, one of which was two inch wound with a puncture that exposed her kidney. I washed her with warm water, poured hydrogen peroxide onto her back, alternating the next day with idoine, Shriners and hydrogen peroxide. I keep the wounds covered with neosporin. I did not think she’d make it. I took her into the house that first night. Today however she is recovering. The green bruising is clearing up and the missing flesh is closing up. Her feathers are beginning to come back. My question is how long before the 5 inch wide bared back feathers will come back and I can let her rejoin her peeps?
