My DUCK GOT ATTACKED BY MY DOG!! HELP PLEASE!!!*PICS INCLUDE

[casportpony]

Vetericyn &/or rooster booster wound spray

CLorhexadine is better and less expensive

Maybe some hoof or vet wrap

Probably not for this wound

Cornstarch, but for smaller wounds

I think the bleeding has stopped

Blukote

Not for this wound.

Hydrogen peroxide will make it bleed again.
If you can go to Tractor Supply, get some Vetericyn, something to be able to squirt some chlorihexdine into her neck wound. Non stick bandage, antibiotic oint without Lidocaine. And a self stick ace wrap found in the horse section.
Casportpony will provide you with information also.

@Nabiki

Because it damages tissue and it's not very good at killing bacteria.

Yes, Vetericyn is expensive and the Chlorhexadine is cheaper.

Hey, does your duck have a name? What's he/she like? It might help you calm down if you talk about your duck

Thanks for the clorhexadine tip. I wish id known before i bought the other stuff.
I meant this to be a general list. It sounds like she needs to build herself a first aidd kit.

His name is clover he is very sweet and he loves to explore with his brother who has been right by his side the whole time

The description says its ideal for dogs and horses. How could she convince him to buy it anyway if he refuses? She mentioned he's hardheaded. Do you have a resource for it like with the peroxide? Just asking based on personal experience
