Quail chick lost toe - ADVISE !!

[themadhousechooks]

Hi all.

I have had my quail chicks for three weeks now. When I got them many had so much poop stuck to their feet they were soaked immediately and some of them were what looked like left with damaged feet but all recovered except one.

I noticed him slightly insteady on feet so looked to see his toe is missing and bulbous. There is the most minute scap the side of a pin there but no oozing or anything nasty. I have salt water bathed and put healing powder on.

Do you have any other advices please?

Thank you in advance xx

It looks well on the way to being healed. The quail will adapt; just keep the area very clean until the foot is completely healed; if it isn't already.
