Greetings-

[Chick-n-mama]

I am a Chick-n-mama to 13 various types of chickens, 1 Rhode Island Red Rooster that is a big sissy, 2 Polish, 1 cochin, 2 americana, 1 russian olaf, 1 sexlink, 1 bantam, 2 barred rock, 2 idk what kind but they lay blue eggs, the new addition Hudini or Helen(cuz she escaped the coop and now has no eyes right now from a recent attack) and 2 Peking ducks, one male, one female. We live in Ramona CA. on 8 acres and also have horses and a sweet little dog on the property named Chewy. All have lived harmoniously until recently when our new addition was attacked by our duck/ducks and or chickens? That is what prompted me to get on here in search of some helpful info on how to save my brothers bird. Love this forum and love seeing all the Chicken lovers and family out there from all over!

Well you can't restore her vision. Sometimes another bird will be friends with a disabled one, and kind herd or lead them around to food and water and protect them. If not it could become a housepet chicken. Please check out "People with house chickens," thread.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out.
