ear scratching

[rifle2601]

My hen has been scratching at her ear and is now pretty bloody. Going to get her cleaned up but don't know how to treat it. Thanks!

Check for mites or lice. Or any sign of insect bites.

Probably lice and/or mites and she may have an ear infection caused by the irritation. Check the ear canals and clean if necessary.
