Any clue

[Sherrie777]

I have a lavender that didn't go to the coop last night. Found her this morning with pecking sores on her comb and not wanting to walk. Brought her inside and checked her over no other wounds were found so I offered her scrambled egg. She ate most of it but she hasn't drank any water yet. Confinement and rest. Any other advice?

Do you have a picture of her injuries? I would get some electrolytes in her if you can. Do you have a rooster?

 

[Sherrie777]

No rooster. I'll get some in her. Thank you

What is your weather like? Is it possible her comb is frostbitten?

 

[Sherrie777]

No there was some blood and fresh pecking sores

Fresh, as in not there when you last saw her before everyone else went into the coop last night? Was she in a predator proof pen that was perhaps slightly breached by a predator (fingers through wire)? Could another hen have come out into the pen and peck her before you found her this morning? Do you know why she didn't go into the coop last night? Is she being bullied and doesn't want to be around your other girls? Lots to consider, obviously.
