A predator, most likely a raccoon, attacked three of my laying hens. It killed Ms. Fanny Lou, my young Aruacana-Americauna. It slightly injured Ms. Fiona, one of my Speckled Sussexes, and inflicted a large wound on my other Sussex, Ms. Pearlie. Ms. Pearlie's wound is on her left side, under her wing, so it's not exposed to the elements. It was a bloody, ugly mess when first we discovered it but bleeding did not continue. It appears that the predator clawed and/or bit through the skin. We applied Vetricyn initially and are now spraying Betadine a couple of times a day. The wound was inflicted on Saturday, 12.30.17. Ms. Pearlie is alert, her eyes are clear and bright, and she's able to jump up to her nighttime perch with no apparent problem. I have been told and have read that chickens are remarkably resilient when it comes to recovery from injuries without a lot of intervention. We have hesitated to use other sprays due to potential contraindications. We would welcome any suggestions for further treatment, particularly with antibiotics. Have read that Baytril may be a good antibiotic. Our vet does not treat poultry but I'll be calling him tomorrow to see if he will write an antibiotic prescription for poor, sweet Ms. Pearlie. She is otherwise a big, healthy, and lovely girl.
