Hi, this is the poor little one (2 weeks old) who was kicked in the head by a scratching chicken. She has another wound on the other side of her head. (Most of the colour is iodine, there is no bleeding). She was hurt Sunday afternoon, it is now Tuesday evening. While she is a little better, I am keeping her alive on yoghurt, egg yolk and water with vitamins added, fed with a spoon. She is living in the bathroom under the heat lamp.
She will stand ( not for long) and cheep but she will not eat at all and only drink when I spoon feed it to her. I have grown very fond of her and am happy to keep trying but is she suffering and should we put her out of her misery? If she goes on like this she will starve.
