Broken wing?!

[silverlaced44]

Hi!
Today I saw my chickens ganging up on my serama, so I ran up and he was in there with his wing dragging and when I touched it he moved it in a really weird angle above his back and he is acting like it really hurts. Is his wing broken?

Thanks

Should I isolate him tonight?

I would isolate him just in case. But i dont know if he is injured or not.. sorry

Can you post pics? I would definitely isolate until 1. you know for sure if there is an injury 2. until you can supervise and work him back into the flock.

I think he just got pecked real hard on his wing and it hurt to be touched, I think that one was holding him down and the other two where pecking him It isn't broken though!! I'm going to buy a serama hen and set up a house for him and the hen. Thanks for the help!

Youre going to need atleast 6 hens per roo. He could really hurt that hen if he doesbt have others to mount

What if I got a silkie hen? They are bigger then seramas.

Yes but he can overbreed them which can hurt them. You could prolly do that temporarily untill you hatch some more hens. How many roos you got?

But im not an eggspert so you might want to ask in the incubating w/friends thread. They would know more than i would
