When I went out today to feed my girls, I saw this hen walking around eating and pecking like normal, but I noticed her wing feathers look like they had been picked over and when she turned around, I noticed there’s a hole in her side where it looks like her skin was ripped off a good 4 inches across. I took her in and tried to clean it as much as possible but is there anything more I can do for her?! I’ve never seen anything like this and I’m not sure if there’s any salve or anything that would help. I have some blood stop powder that we use on the goats. It’s not really bleeding much. It’s just raw flesh. I have a separate cage that I can put her in, but I’m just trying to find out if there’s anything more I can do to help her. I have no idea what happened to her and she was fine yesterday.
