I have really fluffy Silverlaced Wyandottes and their backs have been looking awfully bare because of my roo but I'm waiting for chicken saddles to come in. Anyway today it's raining and I looked in the nest box and saw my biggest girl Arlene sitting on the nest. She had a gaping wound on her side that looked about a week old and a cut on her back. I ran back inside to get my husband but by the time I went back out she was already out with the others. I have to wait to get her again. I'm going to separate her and try to feed her up. What can I put on the wounds?? Should I bandage anything? I feel terrible... the really do hide their pain and illnesses well....
