One of my 5 week old chicks escaped from the crate and was severly pecked by my year old hens. She is making an amazing recovery but I'd like to get her back with the other 5 week old peeps as soon as possible. We have been applying neosporin and the back of head is healing really well. Do I have to wait for the feathers to grow back before I can put her back with the chicks? Can I put Blu-Kote on the back of her head until the feathers grow back? Do you think the other 3 will gang up on her no mater what? It's been a week since the attack and I hate keeping her isolated for much longer. HELP!!!
Also, can we give her a bath and if. so, how do we go about that task?
