Right, no rooster. I’ll look up the chicken Cape. Thanks! Do you think this could be mites? And how would I know?

Please help! I noticed a bare spot on this chicken before, and thought maybe she was getting picked on or mounted by another hen. I sprayed it purple to help her keep from getting picked on once I could see the bare skin. But it has gotten much worse… a bigger bare spot and many more feathers...

For some reason, the pine tar sounds intimidating to apply.

I also see a powder than helps bleeding to stop. There is one hen whose vent still looks like its seeping bright red blood. This powder is listed as being for livestock as well. but has anyone used on chickens? I've never used pinetar either. What do you think are the best products to use on...

Is this what I want/need? I found it at Tractor Supply. Going to call and make sure it's in stock.

Would Tractor Supply or Blain's Farm and Fleet have the tar or the Blue-Kote?

I've got the 4 injured hens separate (but together) from others. So far they aren't picking at each other... but wow, there is a really noticeable red spot/injury on back. I think I defnitely need to cover it with something. Pine tar and blue kote have been recommended. Does that sound best. I'm...

So Pine tar would also be good to put over the broken skin areas?

Our rooster can be very rough on them as well... I"m guessing if he was hungry and bored he may be the culprit. I am not putting him back in there for a long time until they're healed.

I laid in bed in the middle of the night trying to figure this out... I think it may be because when I was gone yesterday morning, the kids forgot to let the hens out until really late... like 10:30am which means they were cooped up with NO food (only water) until then. Their coop is adequate...

4 bleeding hens... 5 not bleeding hens. 1 rooster

This bird doesn’t look as bad because it was after we cleaned off all the fresh blood... dried stuff left

9 hens and 1 rooster. Nothing like this has ever happened before. They are 9 months old. I just can’t believe that there are 4 of them witt the exact same thing and all SO bloody on the backside. I really wish I had cameras out there!

Haven’t seen blood on their beaks. I’m so worried. There are now 4 of them... I want to upload videos. I don’t know how to upload to YouTube... does Vimeo charge to use it that way? They are short videos... wish I could post them

ok, I really need help. I have now THREE hens with this!!!! It almost seems as if the blood is coming from split skin? I have two brown hens and an Easter Egger all with the same thing. I can’t figure out what happened!

Here is a video of the 2nd hen... please tell me what you think.

Ok, this is CRAZY! There are two hens with this issue. What in the world!?

Ok. Upon further inspection after cleaning her up, i think it looks like s cut up above her vent?

Ok. Upon further inspection after cleaning her up, i think it looks like s cut up above her vent? I wonder if there is s bit of a nail sticking out in the coop...? I just don’t know what else
