Yes,like 95, but they only last like 10 minutes too, I watch my Bator 24/7.

This would be a good post for the emergency thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures

If you could get a picture to go along with your post it would be helpful, too.

Good luck!

I think if you have a predator taking out your birds, you can shoot without a license, if you are in an area that allows shooting.

Yes we are allowed to shoot it for destroying property or livestock but it becomes property of the St of WA... If we have a license then we can keep and must process the meat.

Dose any one have tips on that to feed an injured hen with a bent jaw?
Right now I'm feeding her soup and stock.

Best place to get that kind of help is on the Emergency thread

It's not a emergency she's not bleeding and she has no wounds and it happened three days ago.
