    Possible punctured crop + possible broken leg (?)

    I have a few questions and pictures of both of their wounds, but it may have to wait for tomorrow. My phone is about to die again, and I can't exactly charge it at the moment ☹️

    It's okay, and thank you. I greatly appreciate the help you gave me the past couple days. Most of what you told me regarding how to help, I hadn't known until you said it. So thank you. I still have two other injured hens to look after so I can't put too much focus on her passing at this time.

    I meant to update this morning, but my phone had been dead all day. Unfortunately my girl passed away in the middle of the night last night.

    Possible punctured crop + possible broken leg (?)

    We currently have them separated because getting her in and out of the cage seemed to be doing more damage than good, I have her on a towel bed in my bedroom floor to keep an eye on her and to lessen the risk of worse damage getting her in and out of the cage. It's a small dog cage which is what...

    No, but I can attempt to do so in the morning. She's drinking just fine and thoroughly throughout the day as well. We've been keeping her in a dog cage overnight and I sit with her on a bench or on the floor during the day to make sure the other injured chicken we keep her with doesn't trample...

    She still hasn't been eating on her own, and she's still staying off of it, I was able to attempt to listen to it for any popping sounds and didn't hear anything.

    I apologize for not having thought of getting a picture of whats in it, normally when we have coop attacks, there's never any survivers so trying to take care of them in this way is new to me

    The Pink Lady medicine we used had seemed to be oil based so we had to use Dawn soap to clean it away. But we also used this (picture shown)

    This is the picture of my hen's chest injury.

    Possible punctured crop + possible broken leg (?)

    In a previous comment, I mentioned that I would need to wait before I can clean the wound. She may currently be calm from the shock but she still dislikes being handled to a certain extent. I will post pictures of the clean wound when I am able to have the help to clean it.

    No, I just recently started looking how to handle her alone, and had planned to try the sugar water shortly.

    Respectfully, I am fully aware that she's in shock. Sadly, I don't have any Gatorade or baking soda on hand at this moment. I'm not certain if it's her crop or not, my mom said that it most likely is the crop and I believed she was right since she's had more experience with them. I've looked up...

    Possible punctured crop + possible broken leg (?)

    She doesn't peck at the medicine at all, one of my other injured chickens did however so we had to separate the one pecking the medicine from the other two. The main open wounds on her were a few scratches along her chest but the official problem is an area of clumped skin. No, she doesn't...

    We have cleaned her chest multiple times since we've brought her in to be doctored on, we simply put the medicine on and leave it until its time to clean it again. She does indeed curl her toes whenever she brings her leg in. As for the rest, ill need to wait for my mom to get home to help...

    Possible punctured crop + possible broken leg (?)

    The first picture is my hen, the second is of her chest injury, and the third provided is the medicine stuff that my mom and I have been applying to her and the other two injured hens. There is bruising of course. I've checked her legs earlier on (exactly the way you had explained) when I...
