Wounded cayuga duckling

[Miss Lydia]

So this wound is on her back right? Looks a little more swollen than the other side don't you think, your there what does it look like to you? Eyes look clear that's a good sign.

@casportpony look at the wound area now please.

I am having a hard time visualizing where the wound is. Can you take a picture from a couple of feet away with someone pointing at the wound?

Hope this helps some, I guess it's not her "back" but I consider it the top side, I'm not sure how to describe where. Maybe her hip. Sorry @Miss Lydia and @casportpony thanks for your help

Great pics!Does it look very swollen and squishy like fluid is under the skin? compare to how the other side feels.

 

[Miss Lydia]

@casportpony new pics

Wow, fabulous picture! So my best guess is that the infection has spread, and because of where the bite is it cannot drain.

Oh boy...it don't feel squishy or swollen to me but I'm not an expert. So what happens if I leave it alone an just continued antibiotic at 3 times a day instead for 12 more days? Or how does this drain hole work, like how do I get it in their

I don't think upping the drugs will help. , and I'm not sure what I would do if I were in your shoes. Maybe I would slice at the base of the redness then flush the hell out of it with chlorhexidine and saline?

This is now ten days old?
