So unfortunately last night, before I went to lock the chicken coop, my chickens were attacked by a possum. I currently feel so guilty for what happened to them and not being there. We were able to capture the possum and checked the chickens. There were four hens that had dead and the rooster was injured trying to protect his ladies.
The problem with rooster is that he seems to be in shock and I’m afraid that something worse is wrong with him. He is standing on his own but won’t move unless he is touched or hears something. The only injuries that I found are some missing feathers and his comb was injured and bleeding. The main concern for me is that he will get worse and won’t eat or that he is inevitably going to die and I am prolonging his suffering. So if anyone has suggestions, recommendations, or questions please tell me.
