Home Live Animals First aid for chickens: Blue spray yes – but the zinc spray the ghosts divorced Stand: 24.07.2026, 16:00 Comments Follow us on Google The chicken community is divided over the use of zinc spray in wound care for their herd. A chicken has a wound – and suddenly everyone else pecks on it. For internal administration in poultry, robust studies are lacking – and there are concerns about possible deposits in the tissue when applied permanently. Nevertheless, it can happen quickly in everyday life: A bird of prey attacks, an aggressive rooster causes bite wounds, or an animal is injured when the pecking order is enforced.
Furthermore, CTC blauspray (chlorotetracycline): This prescription product contains an antibiotic and is only available through the veterinarian. If you want to use it: use pharmacy-grade products and limit the application to external wound care. Typical applications in chickens: Rinsing and cleaning wounds as a spray applied to the wound surface What science says: For external application, there are indications of a supporting effect in wound healing.
In addition, It is alcohol-free and does not burn on the skin. Not every spray with zinc on the label is suitable for direct application on animal skin.
