Hen With bloody neck

[DuckyDonna]

I will try to get some tomorrow. It’s not an open gaping wound, it’s from being grabbed for breeding. If the vasoline doesn’t work he’s getting separated

I'm thinking that separating is an excellent idea! It's probablby not going to stop. If only my one little pretty drake would get going like that!

It looks very stylish too!

Love the pink brings out the color of her eyes. No laughing matter though drake jail, time out or whatever you want to call it we have to protect our females from abuse.

1 drake six hens. One of the hens has a bloody neck and spends most of the day hiding from the group. Is there anything we can do beside separate. We put a bunch of vasoline on her neck hoping it would slow him down, not sure how that will work. In about 3 months I will be integrating another 12 hens. Not sure why he is after this hen so much

He likes her because she submits easier so separate her and a buddy till she heals.
