Full First Aid Guide
Basic First Aid Steps
- Isolation & Minimize Stress: Keep the bird warm, in a quiet, dark environment.
- Hydration: Provide fresh water. Use an oral rehydration solution like **Electral** (pharmacy product in India) for dehydration.
- Stop Bleeding: Apply pressure with a clean cloth or gauze. Use saline solution (sodium chloride, easily available in India) to clean wounds.
- Topical Wounds: Clean with diluted **Betadine** or chlorhexidine (avoid around mouth, ears, or eyes).
- Cuts & Minor Injuries: Use **Vetwrap** or micropore tape to immobilize the injury.
