In the Brooder
My chicken received an injury to her neck several weeks ago. We weren’t able to stitch it closed and she has since formed a large hard scab over the area. I’m not sure of what I should do. Will this be a weak spot which will continue to be susceptible to injuries? Is it an infection which needs to be removed? Or will it eventually heal up and fall off? She’s one of my originals and I’d like to reintegrate her back into the flock if she’ll be safe.
Pictures included (note: She went through a hard molt following the injury and isolation ion from the flock.).
