4th injury to same chicken (Gross pics)

Can you clean the wound really well, pluck the feathers 1/2" away from the wound edges and post new pictures of it?

I’ll do that in a bit. I’m letting her rest. It stopped bleeding and she was looking a little ragged.

It will help if we can get a better look at it.

So the perches are high. We do have a ramp for them. Some use it, some don’t. The lowest one is about 3ft and the top one is about 4ft.

That doesn't seem to high. I'm not sure if there's a optimal height for perches. Some are alot higher than that. They are birds after all! But would it be worth lowering the higher perches or putting another ramp up. I'm just thinking if she hurt her neck or head the first time could she still be unsteady which could cause heavy, uneven landing? But as @casportpony says you need to keep her wound clean to stop infection.

It’s just so weird that it’s always her. I have 17 chickens. 4 injuries to the same bird. Lol.
