Our flock was out freeranging today and I went out to check on them and saw fresh blood drops on the back porch, not alot just like someone walked by dripping. I quickly made the rounds and checked everyone visually and noticed that our Rooster, Rory, had completly torn one of his spurs off! I have no idea what happened as I didnt hear and kind of commotion and I have looked everywhere that he could have gotten hung up and can't find anything. I didn't want to stress him by chasing him down in the yard so I just kept an eye on him and it quit bleeding pretty quickly and when we put everyone up for the night i checked him over and put some Neosporin on the wound... A round place where the spur was basically. His foot seemed fine and he didn't seem any worse for the wear but I need some input... Has anyone ever had this happen? What did you do? Did it heal ok? Did the spur grow back?
I have trimmed them before and they grew back but this one is GONE!
Thanks for your help
