please help chickens toe

[ninajoe]

My small chicks toe was just smashed its bleeding and she won't stand on it. I was cleaning out their cage when her toe was smashed I cleaned it with peroxide and put a band aid on it what should I do?

I'd use blu-kote or some neosporin if you have it, not peroxide. I don't know if the bandaid is going to do any good, might just irritate the chick --especially if the bleeding has stopped. Keep it clean and keep an eye on the other chicks to make sure they aren't pecking at it, if they are separate the chick out. If the toe is broken I'm not sure what can be done or if it's even worth fixing, it will probably be fine either way. Hopefully someone a little more knowledgeable on chick foot problems can answer your question.
