Kindly apply 10% povidone iodine. Remember it is and insist on 10% not any othe concentration. It is the best known topical antibiotic that has best result on any type of wound.

Kindly include liquid paraffin in your drinkers. Remember liquid paraffin from vet shop not kerosene. Also administer anti-stress e.g poultricin kuku formula.
