Bloody tail - what can I do?

[Judy]

BluKote comes in a spray, turns whatever it touches blue-purple, is supposed to discourage pecking and is a wound antiseptic.

I would most likely cool it off in the brooder a little, and perhaps give them more space. If they are 2 weeks they will do best with a sq ft per chick of space.

ddawn, did you see my post about the safety of the product? Do you think it is safe for chicks and/hens? I have used the product on other animals for years, I was shock to think it was unsafe. I have even used it on a laying hen. She was a WR before she became a purple rock.
