    Rooster's wing torn completely off by our dog- Is there anything else I should be doing for him?

    Week 8 Update The last four weeks have been great for Big Red!! Since the last post that I shared, we stopped messing with his wound all together and let him go back to just being a normal rooster at that point. He still resides in his separate pen, and most likely live his life out there...

    Week Four Update! Big Red One Month Later Today marks one month since Big Red's injury! This first month has sure been a rollercoaster ride! From the beginning where we were doubtful that he would even live, to him slowly becoming alert, moving, and eating/drinking again, then a few days...

    Three Week Update Today has been three weeks exactly since Big Red was injured. He continues to heal wonderfully and has returned to pretty much all his normal activities! I wanted to continue to update with his progress, and will start doing weekly updates and photos until he's healed...

    Day 12 Update Well here I am a day late after just bragging on myself in the last post about updating every two days. :) Whoops..lol. However, there's not really much to report other than HEALING which is why I haven't thought about it! Big Red is doing so well, and I am so amazed when I...

    Day 9 Update Big Red continues to do well, and I look forward to posting updates about him! So far I've been really good about keeping to my every other day schedule and I'll try to keep it up! He has been crowing off and on since he started back two days ago, but not at the...

    Day 7 (One Week) Update! I didn't even need to see his wound to know that Big is on the road to recovery today!! Just take a listen at what I came home to. He was wanting to go out and see his ladies! We have continued with our same routine, letting Big Red out in the yard under close...

    Rooster's wing torn completely off by our dog- Is there anything else I should be doing for him?

    Day 5 Progress The green bruising from two days ago has faded to yellow and looks a lot better! Yay for it not being gangrene!! It seems a little more swollen than it did, but it's scabbed over and healing nicely. We are still changing the bandage every other day and keeping the wound...

    We plan to keep him warm and in the house as long as it takes for him to heal. Thank you all for the suggestions and encouragement! It’s greatly appreciated. He’s an extra special bird to us because he’s the very first animal we got when we decided we wanted to start our little farm over two...

    Rooster's wing torn completely off by our dog- Is there anything else I should be doing for him?

    I came home three days ago to find that our Australian cattle dog had gotten loose from the runner she was on. She was excited to see me when I got home, and I decided to leave her out for a while to let her get some exercise (our chickens were fenced in the backyard). A while later, my fiancé...
