Just found one of my 3 month olds in her run laying on her side, when I picked her up to see what was wrong discovered one of her wings is  missing. I have no idea what happened to her., No blood or anything like that. Any ideas? Will she be alright with only one? Any one have info on this kind of thing?

Thanks 

Karen

I would think some kind of predator pulled it off threw the fencing.  It's sad but as long as you keep the wound clean, she'll be fine.  The good things about chickens, and animals in general, is they don't feel sorry for themselves.   She'll need a lower roost but she'll be alright.
