Good advice so far. I would agree that debriding that yellow crust off until you get to pink tissue is the best course of action. Holding a scalpel sideways and scraping instead of cutting works well on crumbly and/or hard scabs. Bleeding is okay (preferred, even), just means the tissue is still alive; thankfully it looks like the tip of her wing is okay for now. Honey and ointment is good for softening but wont necessarily benefit her if it’s just sitting on top of a thick scab.
I would suggest trying your best to get either fishmox or if you already have a vet (for other pets) call and see if they can do you a favor. Strange that your state doesn’t have any antibiotics for cattle.. not even Tylan or similar at a feed store?
