Our new hen (approx 10 weeks old Sussex/Plymouth x) got out a few days ago, she turned up today with a maggot infested wound (looks like a cat bite?). I've washed it (and most of her) in saltwater with Tea Tree oil, picked out all the maggots I could find (yuck!) and smothered the wound in Savlon antiseptic cream. What are her chances?
