Posted this morning looking for advice... maybe somebody can help this time. My hen was attacked by a dog this morning and has wounds on her neck and under one wing. Her right leg is stuck straight out and completely limp. It is very cold and I am not sure what to do at this point. I'm worried...

Does anyone have any advice at all? Please! I have a very limited Internet connection and I am hoping next time I check there will be some information for me.

Sorry for poor pictures, she gets very anxious when I approach her at the moment.

That makes sense, good to know! Thank you for the explanation :)

That's good to know! Does that mean that the chicks that were labeled as a certain breed are actually that breed? Or just more than likely that breed? I mean who specifies what gets labeled as what? Sorry for all of the questions, just curious!

I just purchased 9 chicks from TSC in Hazlehurst. The labeling there is absolutely ridiculous, or was at the time I made my purchase. I don't think any of their chicks were sorted properly. I went ahead and bought four Rhode Island Reds, three of what appear to be Barred Rocks but were mixed in...
