Thank you. I'm using triple antibiotic ointment and bag balm for the wound. There's no bleeding but it's still just best to me to keep her inside and not let it get infected.I've read in similar circumstances you don't want to let the wound dry out so applying triple antibiotic without pain relief or honey to the wound will help it stay moist. Assuming you cleaned it with Hibiclens or saline solution to remove any dirt or debris? You'll want to watch for signs of infection so the ointment will help with that. Ensure there is no pain relief in the triple antibiotic / neosporin ointment as that is toxic to chickens.
