I'm sorry, It looks like you tried to upload a photo, but unfortunately we can't view it. If you could take a photo of the label of the product you are asking about can probably let you know whether or not it is safe to use, but as Dr Fernandez said, we can't know whether or not we expect it to work without being able to actually see the wound. Please post again and hopefully the photos will load! Thank you!

    Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! There is no way we can recommend using a dressing or medication without being able to evaluate the wound per se. For this reason, I recommend you consider having Hens evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They would be able to evaluate this and determine what would be best to treat it with. Best of luck!
