LC - life after attack

[MarlaMac]

This is LC. Her story is on this page:

I so appreciate @Wyorp Rock advice as LC was mending. Without it I would have been lost. This is the best, most comprehensive site for chicken owners!

Recap - she was attacked and spent 3 months in the house with us. She has had a hard time coming under Rooster's authority.

She still prefers me as her #1 rooster which gets her in trouble sometimes (Rooster Cogburn does not like being in 2nd place) as I like to spend evenings watching the flock put themselves to bed.

The only way I truly know it is her (besides her behavior) is the loss of wing muscles under her feathers. It took her first molt to regrow her feathers.

I love me chickens!

So happy to see that LC is doing well.

Lovely as always

Glad she is doing well!

What a wonderful recovery! I've often told new members that BYC is literally a lifesaver, and your story of LC illustrates that perfectly.

Congrats to her, you and everyone who helped along the way!

That was amazing to see from initial horrific wound to the recovery, a real feel good story! =)
