I heard that you can give them a Baby Aspirin for pain

Please do not do that. Unless you are a professional animal healer you are not doing her any favors by giving her narcotics meant for creatures twice her size or more...I heard that you can give them a Baby Aspirin for pain

PLEASE DO NOT USE HUMAN PAINKILLERS ON CHICKENS, you can overdose them. Nothing with painkillers in it. I cant stress that enough. If you know how to keep her wounds clean that is a plus, do that. She may very well keep pecking at the wound, that is a behavior chickens do instinctually and you will likely need to cover it so she cannot see anything red and raw back there. If there are no deep punctures she stands a reasonable chance of recovery as long as she has full range of motion with her neck and has no serious (broken) legs. As to having a blue looking comb, I am not sure about that as a symptom but close observation is necessary to spot any trouble developing or any changes in her status.
Someone told me not to use peroxide (I posted in an animal group on Facebook before coming here) Is that really something I shouldn't do? I used it the last time she had wounds and she was fine but now I'm second guessing myself. I just want to do everything rite.
