So, earlier this week a raccoon attacked my chickens just after dusk and carried one off. I heard it squawking and managed to scare the raccoon off before he killed her, and only a few of her feathers were missing. Last night, he came back just after dusk again and grabbed a different chicken. I ran out there and scared him off again, but this time, he had gnawed on one side of her head. I quickly put my other chickens up while trying to keep an eye on her when she disappeared and I thought the raccoon had gotten her again. This morning, however, she was walking outside of the fence, one side of her face is very swollen and bleeding, but the other side is fine. She's missing a lot of feathers but she is able to drink water at least. I'm not quite sure what to do.
