I own a dwarf bunny however this is a bunny at the pet shop I work at.

We have a few breeding rabbits in the back and today I found one of the babies had jammed itself in a tight spot against chicken wire.
It's neck is some what cut up so I tried to lightly wipe out any debris and the put some vetericyn spray on it. It does seem to have some trouble walking on that side and I am wondering if there is anything else I can do?
Will the mother care for it or will she kill it if it cannot get around well?

The owner of the shop ended up giving it to someone who cares for local injured birds. I hope it does well. :/ thank you though
 
Debriding with lots of saline solution and getting it completely clean would really help. Manuka honey is the only thing I would put on wounds on babies because everything else that kills germs also kills tissue cells as well and inhibits healing. Manuka honey kills bacteria but doesn't cause any tissue damage.
