In the Brooder
Last night something attacked my young chickens. This morning I found my one and a half month old Golden Pencil Hamburg hurt. She is missing a big patch of skin right along the left side of her breast and her neck, close to her wing. She has no puncture wounds and she's not bleeding.
I brought her in and cleaned her up. I smeared triple antibiotic ointment on her to try to keep the wound from drying out. Then I dressed it with a split sponge bandage.
She has fresh food and water and limited mobility with the box I'm keeping her in. She is eating and drinking. I've covered the box with a towel to keep her calm.
Any more suggestions for what else I can do to help her would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
