Okay...here's the story... My kids got two baby chicks from their 3rd grade science class around 18 months ago. Up until about a month ago, they were our only two chickens. They are big easter eggers, a hen and a rooster. Fast forward...my friend was getting rid of her chickens about a...

You could always try and see if bringing another calm hen (if she has a friend in the flock) in with her will perk her up. My bird dog got a hold of my rooster two weeks ago. He was mauled pretty bad. Missing most of his feathers on his back and his left wing. Was in a bad stage of shock...
