I flush out wounds with a saline solution, and then use neosporin (WITHOUT painkiller) or vetericyn.

The analgesic in neosporin isn't dangerous to birds in the amounts needed for a cut like this. @casportpony I think has done a good bit of study on the issue.

Ah ok. I literally just read two minutes before about how it can kill a bird. I have used it before in very small amounts for my rooster when the tip of his beak was broken and the "quick" of the beak was protruding quite a bit and was very painful and sore.

I think, if I remember properly, it would really only really start to be dangerous if they ingested an entire 1oz tube. Maybe not even then. Skin transfer on a small cut isn't an issue.
