Alice is my favorite Quail. When I put her food in her cage to feed her, she ran out of her cage, and my chickens were outside pecking the ground. Henrietta the biggest meanest Rhode Island in the flock, went charging at Alice and it was a nasty fight. It only lasted a few seconds, but I ran Henrietta off I carefully scooped up Alice in my cupped hands but she was chirping in pain. She had feathers missing her wing is sagging and she is limping. (something happend to left foot) ! Her wing is in terrible shape when I put her in her cage she tried to jump up on her bar but she never moved her wing! I think she broke a bone in her wing. Do you know what I can do? I need your help I will greatly take info on what to do. Thanks
 
Can you bring her in to a cage or dog crate and get her warm? Let her rest for a bit in case she is in shock. Then look over her injuries. If she is bleeding anywhere, apply steady pressure to the wound for about 5 minutes to get the bleeding stopped and clotted. Post pictures of her injuries. Offer her water and food often.
 
Okay Thanks for your info! She has heavy bleeding under her wing so I will apply pressure with cloth for about 5 minutes thanks!
 
Can you post some pictures of her this morning? Describe all of her injuries. Is the skin broken on her wing? Can you clean her wounds with a disinfectant and put some plain Neosporin or Triple Antibiotic Ointment on her wounds?
 
Right now i'm on my laptop with only a front facing camera, I can take some pictures on my phone and then post them! I used some Neosporin the bleeding has stopped. Though there is some skin irritation on her wing.
