It sure does look like a thumb, I might even start to call her Thumbelina in my head! Happy recovery, and thanks for letting me learn from this thread

Thumbalina was the first name that came to mind and seemed like a natural choice but starting way back when with training duck hunting / field dogs, I've always attempted to name my critters single syllable names or 2 syllable names that can be shortened to one like my recently passed Labrador boy, Stewart or "Stu." I couldn't get myself to break tradition so they're all shortened with "Y".

3 Golden laced Wyandottes; Goldy, Lacey, Dotty. Also, the 3 Sussex; Pinky was first, for obvious reason, then Penny for her shiny penny coloration, and lastly Charlie because she was the only one without a name that day on 9/10 and I was just back in the coop from a trip to TSC where I learned of and was incredibly distraught over what had just shortly before transpired with Charlie Kirk. While all the other ladies were just battling over a whole zucchini, she just wouldn't leave my side or stop pecking and tugging at me while I watched the rest. She's becoming a real sweet bird in a way unlike all the other. Her name just popped out in my thoughts. Heck, I even new a gorgeous young lady in my younger days named Charlie and even remember the perfume way back when. Charlie it shall be!

The buff orp pullet i picked out last year had a self amputated toe. She was a great chicken. She ended up with metastatic cancer and died though. I agree with the other posters. Chicken will be ok on its own.
