    The top of her head is looking good. She won't let me get a good picture. It almost looks like a sunburn. No seepage or blood. So she got a good smear of antibiotic on her head.

    Yes, I have put triple antibiotic on her back where there is no feathers. Then I put some on her head as well where it was needed. I done up some homemade electrolyte drink for her as well. I think another couple days of tender care and babying she'll be ready to go back out with her siblings.

    Here is how she's looking after a few days now. She was actually just quacking/chipping. I hear her in there drinking and eating. But I'm going to keep her inside for just a few more days

    Help my rooster

    Just an update. So, as you can see Jr is doing good after what he went through yesterday. The only downside is that he's blind in his right eye. I know it's nature, but his daddy who done this will be making some good broth and the meat will make my lab a good dinner. After it's cooked of course.

    Help my rooster

    This guy here is Jr. He was born last winter and has no claws to roost in a because he was kinda wild with his father and others. I finally got him into the coop.
