Injured rooster sleeping with head under wing

[armdchicken]

If I remember correctly when a chicken sleeps with its head under a wing its not good. Am I overthinking this or not? Just because he just got attack yesterday and hes my baby and I want him to be OK

uhm. im not really sure.. but my chickens always do that when they're sleeping.

but of course no the whole head. imean just the beak and the eyes.

does he sleep like this?

note: this is not my pic, i got it from the internet.

No he sleeps like, he doesn't have a head and he usually doesn't sleep like that.

uhm. i really don't know. maybe because of trauma?
but my leghorn roo really sleeps like that, not always
but most of the time. good luck, hope he'll be fine.

Did you ask this question on the emergency forum? I've not caught my rooster sleeping yet - seems he's awake every time I go out there!
