Not sure if I should worry, but I have a 3 month old chicken (
Salmon Faverolles
) who keeps either scratching or cutting her toe. I think its the same toe each time. It has happened 3 times now - she doesn't seem to mind much and it seems to heal - but it keeps happening so maybe it's not healing all the way. Do you think one of the other chickens is pecking her? or maybe she just keeps scratching it on something?

Should I worry or just keep an eye on her? Thanks!


 
She may be picking at her own wound. I'd probably try a little vet wrap.
 
What should I use? She lets me wipe it off with a wet wipe, so I can probably get something on her toe. I'm new to this. Thanks!
