You can buy special anti-biotic balm to put on a wound but basic white flour sprinkled on a bleeding comb will stem the flow of blood. Once the wound has stopped bleeding a treatment of Vaseline petroleum jelly will keep the wound sealed, moist and promote healing.

Know how to treat injuries in baby chickens. Chickens live in small coops and pens throughout the country. Homeowners in rural areas often decide to keep chickens as an economical investment. Most of these chicken owners start out with a few chicks obtained from friends or neighbors. If the chicks roam around the yard injuries may occur from loose objects in the chicken pen, pecking, fighting or even from predator attacks. Know how to treat injuries to baby chickens saves time and money.

You will need to find some way to keep the edges together. Medical tape works well, but may get picked off. The area should be treated with an antibiotic salve.
