This is a common injury from his spurs. You need to tend to his spurs by either grinding off the ends or removing them entirely. Here's a recent thread regarding this injury:I went out to see my girls this morning and one of my layers had half the skin under her wing ripped off. I have her in sick bay!!
I think my Rooster did it and has started a pick frenzy. I just hope no one else catches on. So how do you stop Cannibalism once it starts?![]()

Don't panic. No one is canibalizing anyone. It was an accident.
