Chicken neck attack!! Help!

[Anabariful]

Today is the 13th full day after the stitches were put in on Sept. 15th after reading back in the thread. Thanks for posting on the other thread of Lady Red76 about your hen's story and progress.

No problem! Glad to see her chicken is doing a-okay!

Hubs and I are planning on taking them out tomorrow evening. He had a late work night yesterday and today on top of grocery shopping and graduate courses. I will update after the suture removal tomorrow evening or Saturday morning, depending on how late we do the removal.

I will be thinking of you and wishing you all the best!

As long as you keep the wound clean I would go 20 days then try one stich at a time. See how the wound reacts. Start in the best parts first.

I'm so sorry I haven't updated in weeks. Anywho, just wanted to let everyone who has been following along that Gretchen is a rock star and has made a full recovery. The lacerations near the top of her neck has completely sealed up and the huge open laceration exposing her crop has closed up as well! there is a thick scab where the extra skin has dried up and we have been ever so slowly trimming it back. These are not the best pictures so my apologies!
