Please help... one of my birds is bleeding

[Skip]

I just went out to see my chickens, and one of them has a bleeding comb.

Is there anything I can put on it to stop the bleeding and prevent infection?

I don't know the cause of the bleeding, but I doubt that the other birds caused it. The chicken is in good health otherwise, and the bleeding is not too severe.

What should I do?

She could have ran into something sharp, but it's more likely that she got in a little quarrel with one of her flockmates. It will heal just fine on its own, but you could rub some neosporin on it if you want.

If the bleeding doesn't stop you can put cornstarch on the owie. Helps pretty quickly.
