New here and I have a hurt chicken!

[Shara81]

Good Morning. I live in Texas and my dog got ahold of my coop we lost 2 chickens and one is really injured. She made it over night and drinks and eats. I checked her out and under her wing you can see her skin must of torn because I can see her spine. I can not kill her what can I do to help her? I have seperated her in a dog cage but kept her in the coop. Any advice is great!

Hi

Glad you could join us here! I'm sorry it's not under better circumstances Please do post in the emergency section where I'm sure members will be able to help you. Chickens really can make a recovery from injury so there is a chance she will recover from this. The initial thing to get them over is shock and your girl eating and drinking is a good sign.

Good luck with her and I hope she can make a good recovery
