I went to the chicken room this morning to feed and water them I found that I only counted 8 chickkens out of 9. I looked throughout the room. I found her pinned against the wall and the duck box, She's not standing on her own, eating and drinking alittle. What can I do, she's also shivering so I am guessing she's in shock. Help! I don't want to lose her she's such a sweet baby. She's 2 month's old
 
She might just be a little shocky. Can you give her some sugar water with a dropper? That might perk her up. Maybe put her in a box with a heat lamp for a little while to see if that warms her up. Offer her some chopped boiled egg yolk, or some special treat and see if she'll take that.
 
Right now shes next to me on a towl, her food and water are next to her, it's getting pretty hot I also have part of the towl over her to keep her warm. Not many plugs around. I'll try the boiled egg yolk, and sugar water, she is drinking on her own. I just hope she doesn't die, I can't take her to a vet, but I am not sure if anything is broken....
 
I have some 11week old chicks and 1 was attacked by I think my neighbors dog... Bit and bloody tail limp wing walks wit a limp and a few cuts/holes on her back....l isolated her in a small dog pen in my garage and put peroxide and alch. On her woulds... She would eat or drink and pooped watery poops......I put some green tea and sugar in her water and left some crumble on the ground.....after aBout a week she was doing fine and 2 weeks later the limp went away if nothing's broken they will heal them selves.......heat lamp helps to heal faster and I just re introduced her to general population to day...first 3 days when free ranging in one acre yard I let them all together then last night put them in coop together they are all acting as. If she never l eft just make sure they let her eat and drink freely
...hope it helps
 
She's doing a bit better, walking around sort of, but alot of limping. I think she may have lot alittle weight, but not to sure. I think she likes me alot more since I saved her from being pinned. Thanks for the help
