This reply is to Amelia. I know this is a little late, but maybe someone else can be helped by this. I had a chicken that got tore up on its behind by a fox or something, and I had been using powdered goldenseal root on my baby's umbilical cord, which worked, and I took some and poured it on the chicken's wound, and sure enought it stopped the mess and healed the wound and it did not get infected. It works great on open wounds.
