wow. ok thanks. well...since we still have no water and limited supplies on hand, i simply showered the wound in saline solution and then, once a bit dried off, doused the area with some good antibacterial wound spray. i could not, for the life of me, figure out exactly what was going on with...

It definately is possible, and it was during the first or second week of laying for them, so they were probably just getting used to thier cycles. We only have four hens and I check their nests twice a day, so...
