In the Brooder
Today I caught a red tail under the coop with my girls. It tried to fly away with one of my oegb mixes but I intercepted. It had her by the leg. At first I didn't think she was going to make it at all because she just kept falling on her side and wouldn't move, but I think she was in shock. The only injury I can see is a puncture wound in her thigh. Shes walking a little bit but she's crossing her legs and stumbling around. I placed her in my small brooder coop by herself. Do hens pull through with leg injuries? Is there anything I should be doing for her? I feel horrible.
