I dont know if its him or me, but we have not bonded, no matter how much I sit with him or talk to him, he wont even eat when Im in the room. He makes me miss my poor hens that got killed, they were so sweet, let me snuggle them and everything :( Maybe he thinks Im the one causing him pain...

Good news and bad news, checked on Mr smith, hes almost fully feathered over his wound, still a pink patch about an inch by inch piece, bad news is he ripped himself while running from me, right on the crease from the body to the leg, hopefully that didnt set us back too far :(

If the bear comes back and I have to kill it, Mr smiths reward can be a bear skin rug in the coop! Im so scared that its going to attack again, oddly Im the only person on my street to have a bear issue, every ones trash including mine has been untouched all year. Must have been a random...

The good/bad news is only two other chickens survived so Im sure they will be happy for more chicken company from gentle mr smith. I think due to feather loss he may end up having to be inside until next spring, house chicken for the next 5 months or more if hes real lucky. Hes going to be...

Ive been kind lazy on putting his SS cream on, but checked him today and it looks great! Put a little SS on it last night but I think its all easy sailing from now on out hopefully. Still have months to go Im sure. Not sure if anyone is still following or not

Mr smith crowed today, I guess he was feeling good! Took some pictures of his wounds before slathering on more SS cream, one picture with and one without flash. Last week we soaked and peeled off the old SS cream, and accidentally some yucky top layer of scab I think? He was pretty depressed...

Picture from today, washed again with saline, didnt get all the old SS cream off because wound scrubbing was making me shakey, re-applied SS cream on the whole area. He had cooked hamburger last night and peas, some scrabbled yolk, today he had bananas, baby applesauce, greek yogurt. He fell...

Mr smith giving me a little wink while re-applying his cream

It is pretty deep and dry, or was, but the good news is the wound didnt smell, wasnt bleeding or oozing, no sign of infection that I could see. It was pouring down rain the whole week he was gone but I think he was able to stay dry under a porch. I believe she called it SS cream? She said it was...

I forgot to add, he is pooping, LOTS, and Ive for sure seen him eat a few bits of kibble. Im feeding him duck feed, taste of the wild cat food, fresh peas, cherry tomatoes and broccoli, tonight Ill try to give him some boiled eggs. I have a dish of fresh water with a bit of sugar in it. Hes...

While on vacation my coop was attacked by a bear, he was able to eat one arucana hen, one pekin duck, and trampled two of my light brahmas. 2 pekins ducks, 1 arucana and 1 light brahma survived, I was under the impression my cuckoo maran hen and my arucana rooster had been eaten. As I unpacked...
