QUESTION
I have a white female dove who seems to be in good health but continues to pick her chest and constantly has an open bleeding wound. What causes this and what can I do to help her?


ANSWER

Not sure what the problem would be. May have been injured at some point causing an absess and sore area. Might put some human-type (neosporin) on and see if that helps.
