    Raccoon scalped my young chicken

    Dear AImless Farmer! Wow, what a story! Mine is really snuggly too. SHe waits for us every evening, looking forward to go in. Does anyone know how to fashion chicken diapers because if it wasn't for accidents, she would be as nice as a little dog. She is SO sweet! She still has a scab on her...

    Raccoon scalped my young chicken

    Thanks to all of you that wrote to me with such good advice. The honey is especially interesting because of course I have some. I finally took her to the vet because she was developing an infection on the top of her head. I know I needed oral antibiotics. When I finally got to see the vet, I...

    Are you sure? My cat had a large wound on his leg that the vet said was old and couldn't get stiches. Exposed muscle was showing. It got hard and the skin grew over the area one cell at a time. Those cells were fur growing. Also I had a chick another time who had the same exposed muscle wound on...

    Raccoon scalped my young chicken

    I have a 4 month old chick who was attacked by a raccoon at night, but he didn't get her all the way. He just managed to bite her head and rip her skin off from the top of her head to the bottom of her neck. Only muscle that covers your skull left. All that's left is her eyes, beak and...
