Not surprising. What you are seeing is the opening to her inner sinuses. You will see that when you de horn them properly. I would watch her real good and make sure there is no infection.
I will keep an eye on her, there was little bleeding...So will this opening close? THanks
The opening will close in time, make sure flies don't lay their eggs in the wound. If you still have flies around you can put some cotton wool coated in Stockholm tar in the sinus to basically plug it and the smell of the Stockholm tar will keeps flies away.
Another home remedy is to put Condice' Crystals (sp?) in the wound, it reacts with the blood and basically sears the wound. It will burn your fingers so wear rubber gloves.
If you see any discharge after a week or so rather be safe than sorry and investigate, that is usually the first sign of maggots.
