Hello.. I have two baby chicks.. they are 3 weeks old... one of my hens hatched them and they were doing fine in the pen with all the other hens and my rooster. Today I went to bed them down for the night and one of the babies looks like it was attacked by one of the others.
all along her neck and back.. right between the wings is broken and red.. all feathers are gone and I can see the muscle.. I brought both of the chicks inside.. Momma was not happy. I put some neosporin on the area and I know it probably hurts her. I have both of them inside on a heating pad.. The hurt baby is staying still.
I know I need to just watch her and keep the area medicated... is there anything else I can do for her? any other medicine that I could use to help her?
