I will start by saying I am a complete rookie...should have joined here/read a "How To Raise Chickens" BEFORE actually attempting to raise them.
Apparently one of my girls is Waaaaay low on the pecking order and was brutally pecked by one or more of her "sisters". She has a gaping wound that we are trying to keep clean/dry/bug free. Have been using bag balm (cause I saw on here that it wouldn't hurt her) I've actually cried over this!!
I'm so praying she pulls through. She's eating/pooping ok and has finally stopped trembling. I sat in the yard with her today (in a danger free area) and she was starting to walk around and peck the ground....
Any thoughts or advice would be awesome!!!
Thanks :)

I hope she pulls through! You'll get much better responses if you re-post to the "emergencies/ diseases/ injuries" section of the forum, instead of here in the coop-and-run pages. Try there, and you'll probably get a knowledgable answer!
 
Oh gosh! I should have posted sooner! Nina appears to be pulling through. She's still indoors at night and in a secured location under supervision during the day if nice weather :)
