Rooster fight!

[Fluffychickensflock]

We noticed one of our roosters were hiding, Sami. So i went over to see what happened, i was shocked when i saw he had dry blood all over him, a huge wound on the back of his neck, and his face had swelled. I thought it he and the head rooster (Squirt) got into a big fight. But when i noticed one golden hen i did not have in that cage in the cage, i went over to the divider. Yes, there was two broken holes these two rooster are bantams, the Squirt is the fighter of the group and protects his two girls, while Sami watches over his one little bantam hen, so i am guessing the other rooster (Heart our big rooster) went after Sami's hen. They both work well together, but Heart does not. i am so happy that all are ok! But now, to the question part, how can i get the swelling down on Sami's face? And should i clean the wound on the back of his head? He is walkinking around, seems just a bit dazed.

You can get some wound spray for poultry at your local feed store, and use that. If he were mine I'd keep him separate in a cage for a day or two to give him a chance to recover, and to make sure no one is pecking at his wounds. And then just keep an eye on them to make sure it doesn't happen again.
