    Bloody Beak - what is this and how to treat?

    Yes I believe it’s beginning to scab and not actively bleeding. I’m going to the local farm store soon to get an antibiotic cream and my plan is to monitor the flock consistently for pecking. Luckily we have a coop cam too.

    Duck tape on her beak? Also can blukote safely be sprayed on the face or would it be better to try to rub on somehow?

    Bloody Beak - what is this and how to treat?

    I saw another thread where someone said their hen did this pecking through the chicken wire… It must’ve been that? There is nothing in the coop except feed/water, nesting boxes, and a roosting bar. I’m most concerned about the others pecking her so I’ve just been monitoring through my window...

    Bloody Beak - what is this and how to treat?

    Went out to weigh my girls and noticed this blood on her beak. I have a camera and check on them frequently and never notice any bullying. This is my first flock, what do I do to help her and how do I prevent it from happening again? Also any clues on what could’ve caused it?
