Hurt duck

[Emmytheduckgirl]

Hello BYC! One of my male Peking ducks got stuck behind his house in his coop and now his wing and leg are a little bloody but it doesn’t seem bad at all just minor cuts. Any advice on how to keep the wounds healthy?

Depending upon how bad the injuries are, I might suggest applying antibiotic ointment. Be especially careful that flies do not lay eggs in the wounds.
