I got my new day-old Golden comets today and they are pecking my Silkie's feet. I have two silkies in there but they are only picking on one of them. I separated them to let her feet heal and in hopes that they will forget about them. Any other suggestions? She's just started getting feathers on her feet and I guess they are irresistable.
Thanks for any help.
Edited to add:
used peroxide on silkie's feet, found posts about pine tar, and other ideas that i can try. I just wasn't sure if it was a new chick thing or if they are likely to forget once she's healed.
These are my first chickens
