Urgent Foot bitten

[Lily’s mom]

One of my sennies bit another ones foot through the bars! she’s avoiding stepping on it, has it put up but I don’t see any blood. The foot also feels warm. What do I do?!
I already called an avian vet but they are an hour away and I’m at work. Trying to get out of work now to take her in. How bad is this?
She stepped on it long enough to eat a nurtiberry for what it’s worth.

Monitor the foot. Get some Vetericyn or another bird safe antiseptic and put it on the foot. However, the best thing to do is to take her to the vet especially if it is warm/hot, swollen, or there is redness. I've had birds bite other birds' toes and treated that myself but in some cases I have had to take the bird to the vet.

BTW, hope all will be well. Please keep us updated.

Thank you. My husband was able to take off from work so he’s taking her to the vet shortly

Hope she is ok.

Hope she is feeling better.

Ok, the vet gave us an ointment but did not think that antibiotics were necessary. She seems to be fine now, little poop

She is still putting her foot up more than normal but I’m hoping that will pass in a few days.
The real question is how do I make her not hate the other two

They get over being angry at each other. You will always have to monitor carefully, though, because if it happens once it may very well happen again.
How is her foot doing now?
