Injured pullet, treatment?

[floricik]

This is a 7 weeks old pullet that got attacked by something. We cleaned that deep cut with peroxide and then neosporin. Is it going to help? They are 4 of them in a chicken tractor and we are thinking a cat or something else tried to get them and scratched her head.
I separated her and put her back in the brooder so she won’t get pecked at.

The tractor is next to the older chicks so we can integrate them. The 4 pullets like to sleep on top of the blue bin.

How is she doing?
Looks like you are tending the wound well. Hopefully she will heal up quickly and with no issues.

Yes. We got her outside a little yesterday and she loved it I went to TS and got Vetericyn spray.

Oh good!
Usually they heal up pretty quickly. Vetericyn is a good product to use.
Is she getting to visit her brood mates or do you have her housed with them? I'd let her see her friends so they stay familiar with one another.

I am keeping her in the brooder by herself and taking her outside for short periods of time. I think is a good idea to bring her to see her friends.
