A raccoon entered my coop 3 days ago killing two hens and injuring another. I have isolated the injured hen to warm dim room. I believe she has a broken wing which I am going to wrap but she is laying on one side (the side with the broken wing) and will not move from that position. She can move her legs but when I try to stand her up she falls back or to her side. I have scattered crumble feed around her head and she does eat and will drink if it's within reach. Her eyes are open and she is alert, moving her neck around. I am just not sure what is wrong with her other then the wing. I know she needs time to heal but I am really concerned about her not moving. Is it just shock or could she be paralyzed? Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
