I'm desperate for any advice. Last week we got our first 4 chicks (now 7 weeks old). All has been fine until I found one chick's head totally bloodied yesterday afternoon. I check on them constantly so it couldn't have been happening for very long at this level of aggression. I have separated this chick into a small hutch in our garage but am wondering how long after she's recovered should I attempt to reintroduce her back with the others? I'm very nervous now about getting 2 little 4 week olds we were planning on. Any advice for our poor little girl would be very much appreciated. I also have noticed that one of the other chicks has a splayed leg. She gets around kind of okay but it is obvious it's not right. Anything I can do for this one? Cheers.
