We were out at the doctors and come home to find her on the dog bed in the carport.
The dogs have been left alone with them in frontyard before.
We seem to think our dogs have plucked her feathers out.
No wounds .
Just a bit off blood were her feathers are pulled out. We also have 2 cats and there is a stray cat hanging around as we are on a farm.
Just looks like he pulled out a lot off her feathers.
Her back and sides and wings are bold and her skin is so red.
We have put chloromide antiseptic spray on her.
She is in the lounge room in a box .
She has had some bread and egg yolk with vitamin e
Strange thing is our dogs have been raised with chicks and chickens for over 4 years.
Not once have they done anything like this before.
This girl here is a small breed we’re our other chickens and standard size and the dogs are always with them and nothing happens to them.
Could it be because she small.
Or we had a friend bring his dog over and his dog started to chase our small ones in front yard.
Would our dog copy his dog’s behaviour?
As it happened they next morning when we were at doctor’s.
Or something else?
She is currently resting and eating and drinking.
Will her feathers grow back.
I feel so awful this has happened to her.
