This chicken was brought to me by a friend whom found her on the side of the road. Her guess, she fell off a commercial chicken truck. She is a debeaked fryer bird and has alot of scabs on this wing, behind her comb, and on her leg joints. The rest of the scabs dont look too bad. She looks like a healthy fat chicken with a few cuts, bruises, and a little limp, except for the wing. It doesnt stink, but it looks shockingly bad to me. There is green discoloration that looks the same color as if colored by a crayola marker. There is no odor from her wounds.
Does this wound look like she should be dispatched? Does it look like it might heal? It would be nice if she could be patched up and live a life outside of a cage for once.....save one of the commercial chickies. Any suggestions for patching or otherwise, would be greatly appreciated.
