Hi Everybody ,

 

I would like to benefit from your experiences on taking care of wounds as I have done a mistake to carry two pairs in a box for a quick travel and in no more than ten minutes a male is attacked by the other pair's female on the neck , the bleeding has stopped in a short while and I have been watching the cock carefully for the last 24 hours , there seems no stress as he is very active and continously sending messages from his quarantine to his mate

 

What precautions should I implement to prevent any infection risks , should I clean his neck ? If yes with what ?

 

Thanks in advance for all your responses .

 

PS : The mate of this cock has already punsihed me for the mistake , she bite my finger when I was tryin to relocate her from the box and have not opened her jaws even after I freed her into the cage .

I would wash the birds neck with warm water, nothing in there, just to wash away any blood or dirt that naturally might attract to the sight.

 

Keep him for a few days in a seperate cage with a heat lamp on him. Ensure he is eating well and pooing normally. He sounds like he is doing well, so that is all you really have to do.

Thanks for the quick response Dave , I will wash the neck with warm water , he is eating and pooing as usual .
