Hen on nest bitten so badly by these useless insects that she can't open her eyes. I'm giving her antibiotic and trying to feed her to keep her going. A bit of probios as well as it seems to be good for everything. How can I treat her eyes to get them to open. She's acting strong otherwise...
I posted earlier about a young hen with a foot problem. We went to feed up and found one of our turkey hens (with chicks) has a broken wing. WHAT DO WE DO!
Young hen fine one moment... hour or so later she's walking but with her foot folded underneath her. (Ours are free roam chickens.) Doesn't act like there's any pain. It's not her leg... it's below the ankle part. I've confined her and have a make-shift cardboard piece taped under her foot...
