I found an injured bird inside the coop!

[The Chickadoodles]

I found this small bird inside the coop and it was pecked by my rooster It is still alive but the back is bleeding and some feathers are gone. What can I do? It cant fly anymore, just flap for a few seconds, so I know if I just let it free, it cant survive. It's a small bird but it still has a life.

Awwww I can't tell what kind of bird it is. It's a pretty bird though. I would keep it in the cage and give it some water and food until it can fly again. The injury doesn't look too bad but I would spray some Vetericyn on it.

It looks like some sort of dove/pigeon. Poor little guy. Do you have a local wildlife center or rehab facility?

It's a dove. Call a local rehab or a Vet to give you numbers to call.
