Ph no, im so sorry. Her wounds look much better though, make sure she rests up and gets lots of water and food aswell. (if she eats) if the other one wants to take her out and watch her, let her out for a few moments and put her in, or let her have a run to walk in, otherwise id keep her in for now
Her leg looks the same. I keep meaning to take a photo of it but when it comes down to it, I don’t wanna touch my phone when dealing with her leg. If she can’t walk on it, idk if it’s humane to keep her alive or better to let her go. I don’t have experience with handicapped hens to know if it’s a life worth living for her?
i think youd be able to tell if you need to. She looks much better, if she seems lkke shes suffering, not moving, lonely, isolated snd sad then yes.
Im so sorry for your loss, you did everything you could.
I'm sorry to hear your Miss Bridgett didn't make it. But she had the best of care. Nobody could have done better for her.
These things happen to everyone who keeps chickens, so we all feel for you. But it's nice to hear Chicken #2 is recovering nicely, that puts a bright spot on a sad day. Just watch that when you let her in with the other chickens, they don't peck at her black toes. Best of luck to her and you!Thank you for the comforting words. They are such fragile animals! I ended up taking the other to the vet an 1.5 away but I now have discovered the most wonderful vet in the process. They put her on antibiotics and she is healing up so quickly now! Ive been watching and she’s the only one that pecks at her feet. I wonder if I should put that blue hen healer on it after her cleaning? She doesn’t peck a whole lot… hardly at all. I feel like it’d come right off though. But she is walking and dusting just like the others! So happy!!!! She had me smiling last night cuz at sundown she left the coop where the others were and came to my front door instead (I take her in at night to keep her feet clean and give her meds).
im glad the other one seems to be getting better..
she’ll get better in no time.
Do both maybe wrap it at day and let it breath at night make sure you let her get sunlight outside some it will help with healing keep spraying and cleaning she can make it. It's amazing how the can bounce back make sure she is drinking water.....she will healThank you for your response. I bought iodine this morning and medicated feed… she is drinking electrolyte water praise the Lord and she is eating some. I’m not sure whether to wrap it or keep it clean and in the air?I just want what’s best for her and am unsure what is at the moment. I feel like if she could heal she could live a happy life.
