Emergency repair of a scalped peahen.

Every now and again we can't find or get to a vet for an emergency. Here is an example of how to deal with a pea with a head laceration. I hope you find some value in my post on Spring Creek Peafowl.

And here she is, a couple of years later. It appears that where she had lost some feathers on her neck, they have come back thin and white, like the under-feather insulation.

Amazing repair and a beautiful hen!

We had a young bantam cochin hen with a similar injury. We treated the wound and kept her apart from the flock until she healed, and she's also good as new. She's now the matriarch of the flock at 10 years old.
