hurt polish chick

[sheena6292]

Okay I've been referencing you guys tons. And have always found the answer till now. My runt polish crested king has what looks like a huge blister on his shoulder. Is this from pecking? Or maybe getting to close to heat? This is my baby of our flock he got really bad pasty butt and I nursed him inside for 2 days. The last 2 days he's been with the rest in the day and in the house at night he follows me everywhere. I just noticed this 5 minutes ago. Please help I don't want to lose my buddy. I thought maybe I didn't give enough info so here it goes. King is about 2 weeks old one of 45 that range from 2 months (ameracauna 1) 1 month (about 20 of various breeds) 2 weeks (about 18 panfrys and don our other crested)they live in a 25 x 25 run and are fed crumble right now.

Sounds like he's being picked on by someone. One of my leghorns got bullied something awful...to the point that they split her neck open and it took FOREVER and a ton of stypic powder to get it to stop bleeding. That was months ago and she's finally been accepted by the others and has healed so well that you can't even tell how bad of an injury she had.

Keep an eye on them and see if you can find someone in the act of bullying him. You may need to separate them.
