Pecking

[PeriF]

We recently got 50 bobwhite quail chicks, I know some pecking to establish and order is to be expected. I found one of the chicks with what I believe to be the vent exposed, how do we treat it quickly so we can reintegrate it? so far we sprayed peroxide on it and applied neosporin as well as separating it, however, I’m afraid it’s stressing it out more by being separated. It won’t stop trying to get back with the others and I’m afraid it will either die from stress or from its injuries. Please help.

Putting blue coat on the wound will help disguise it
