We have 26 chicks brooding together, silver laced wynadottes (16) and white leghorns (10). Sometime in the last 12ish hours one of the wynadottes was injured. I noticed her wing bloodied and gently pulled her out to clean her and isolate her. Her elbow of her wing joint had been badly pecked and the bone is visible. Is this something that can be healed? We cleaned it with Betadine. It does not appear broken or anything.
This is the second wunadotte with an injury. The first one had been pecked on her butt and then was isolated. After returning her to the group she for pecked again and had to be isolated a few more days. Since then all has been ok. The leghorns are about a week older.
