Anything i can put on it to heal it quicker ? or as he is acting normal should i leave him alone and keep a close eye on him ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Anything you put on it will attract the others to it - chicks love wet, powdery or sticky feathers If its not red or bleeding then leave it If its red or bleeding use a cotton bud to apply some purple spray then give the chick a gentle blast with a hairdryer and put it back with the others when its feathers are dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
