Roosters ganged up and tore the back of her head open to the bone. I want to say this was a week, week and a half ago. I still have her separated, but close to her sisters. She's eating and drinking, just not laying eggs, and it's scabbing over. Doesn't seem to be bothering her anymore, and I can't find any indicators of infection. Just wondering what you guys think. Will the skin grow back over her skull? Will she look like she's got a tragic villain backstory forever? If she heals up but still has this lumpy noggin, should I find a way to keep the roosters off of her so they don't open it back up? Is there something I can do to help it grow back over her skull? Should I change her name to something like Blackskull the Layer?
