It is very muddy here now. Just keeps getting better.

I can’t wait for spring to come.

We had a fox grab one of ours this summer but our dog helped find them before he killed her. My husband and I thought she was okay, but the next day I found a big gash on her back under her apron. We treated it with betadine and Neosporin daily until it closed, which took a while, but she did great. It honestly probably could have used stitches, but healed well. She's the kids favorite, so we had to hope for the best!

Did you keep her separated the whole time or let her go back in with the flock?
I bet you were frazzled with worry. I know my Chickens wound will heal - just everything was not cooperating yesterday.

We kept her with the flock because she was too stressed on her own. Since the apron she was wearing covered the wound nobody bothered her.
