she passed sometime last night, I decided to attempt to clean her with a saline regiment I made to see exactly how bad she was but it didnt really help her. She was a beautiful rhode island red ,her coloring didn't match any of the others with its uniqueness, I will miss her. It has sure shaken...
No:( only the bottom just bone like pieces of a top. is there any bone anatomy of chickens pictures been posted in the past that anyone has seen? I cant put myself to cull her even though in the end that seems to be the consensus of those that have seen the images, but also don't want it to...
No :( im afraid to pick to hard at the tissue on the right side of her face to see if she maybe even has one eye left I do not see one on the left side. im going to see what she does with a dropper if I have one still
This is after just getting a little warm water over her still cant tell if theres an eye left on either side :/ id have to think there is on one sideor the other? either way shes a fighter as she survived coccidiosis as a young chick and now this.. which really does not help me knowing i got her...
thank you! surprisingly shes still alive :/ Im not sure how she'd take to stuff on the wounds ,trying to still tell if she has an eye or anything left.

I dont even see any eye balls left on this girl :( I have never had to put any of ours down so im not sure what id do to do so? I just don't know if she would heal up and i feel she would need tube fed the rest of her life however long that may be. sooo bummed we just lost one that I found...
It is really bad. and my fault I didn't lock the coop soon enough tonight:( 2 more images different angle, I cant see any eyes and second image is the top of her beak. I think shes a goner? :(
Yes :( I see no eyes and her top beak is ripped off on the ground. Im so upset with myself for not locking the coop soon enough, I loved the coloring of this one so much ugh!!!
Is my poor hen a lost cost post racoon attack.. her head looks bad poor thing, alert images are graphic.. shes still moving and breathing and just got up and walked but not sure the full extent of her injuries and if I can save her or not :/
