Hey! I’m new to this forum and am looking for some advice. I already have one chicken with a wound from what we think is a bobcat. He is doing well and is expected to recover! But unfortunately I had a new case today. She is an older hen that has gotten absolutely tore up in her hind end. Chunks of flesh are gone. I have medications and access to a vet if necessary but my question is whether I should cover it or not. I’m leaving my other chickens open but his is not anywhere close to as bad as hers. She’s eating and drinking but has some trouble walking and is dealing with a swollen leg. I have her inside as well close to my other one that’s injured. Do yall have any suggestions on how I could address the wound due to its significant nature? maybe something I could give her orally to help reduce inflammation or pain? Any help is welcome! I am in the vet assistant so if worse comes To worse I can bring her to work. Thank You! If yall want to see the wounds lmk.
