WONDER DUST on Poultry???
Had a scare today with an old white silkie hen. She was covered in blood on her breast & feet!!!
Re: WONDER DUST on Poultry???
Never used it but directions say not to be used on wounds to be sutured & the ingredient list says 71% lime . Sounds very caustic to me . I have a container (handful) of baking soda with a 1/4tsp of salt mixed in for blood coagulate for just such things & if I have to stitch I also put some grazy glue over stitches to stop leakage .
