Yesterday, my roo escaped the coop and got into it with my feral rooster flock. He had minor injuries to his comb that have now scabbed over. No major tears. His eye is also injured.
I cleaned his comb with sterile saline wound wash, and applied painkiller free antibiotic cream. I also applied some opthalmic antibiotic to his eye. He was put into a warm dark area with only water for a few hours. He is now eating and drinking just fine.
I have Vetricyn antimicrobial poultry spray for his wound, and a dry coop to put him in. Is it safe to put him back outside or should I keep treating him indoors? He is crowing like crazy and seems a bit restless.
