Yes, quite a few of my birds got some pretty good frost bite. Many of my chickens do. And some of my scovy's do as well on there nob. And a couple of my ducks have some frost bite on the webbing of there feet

They have a coop with plenty of fresh bedding all the time and a heat lamp. But this winter has been VERY cold up here. It was in the 30s today though !! So there is hope of spring .lol...

Bad news guys!!!! My male muscovy duck ,the one who is the dad of my ducklings, got a chunk of his thigh bitten out by something, he's gonna live I know that for sure, but still , should I wrap it up in one of my natural herb remedies or order medicine, I used the herbs for one of my females since she got mauled by or of our dogs twice , but his is from a real predator so I dont know what I should use

I'd wash it out good Buck you can use plain water or mix up some salt and warm water and wash it out good with that, preds including our dogs have bacteria in their mouths so you want to clean the wound real good. then if you have any neomycin or triple antibiotic or if you have used any herbal concoction and it's worked go with that and yes i would wrap it for at least time to cover with a scab. But you need to keep an eye on it because sometimes they need to drain before closing up which can cause infection to set in so bandage and change daily to make sure it is draining. Was this in broad daylight? and when you get a chance tell us about your herbal. glad to hear he is going to be okay.

I would watch it because when they scab over to fast they can get an infection, just watch that it doesn't start to swell or smell.
