    Resuced chicken with foot injury - Was stuck in a car engine

    Just an update that her foot is improving and we found frost bite (small patch) on the other foot and elbow. She will most likely loose at least one toe, but her overall foot is starting to return to some flesh color again in some spots that were almost black 3 days ago. I will post before...

    Resuced chicken with foot injury - Was stuck in a car engine

    Resuced chicken with foot injury - Was stuck in a car engine

    Hello all - looking for some advice. We got a call from a friend who had a chicken run under her car at a stop light and then proceeded to crawl into her engine. She drove her car home with it in there and coaxed out into a bird cage till I could get there. Upon first look she was very...
