Hi everyone! One of my 4 months poults has been badly hen pecked by his siblings! Here are the pictures. It happened the night before because I noticed it yesterday morning. He was standing still head down and one of them pecking at his head continuously.
I immediately moved him out of the cage, isolated him and noticed his feeces was not normal! Picture included. So he is either already, assuming because of his feeces, sick and weak and that’s why he was being hen pecked, or because all of the hen pecking and hanging up on him the stress and hurting produced the suspicious feeces. Today, my concern is that his whole neck is discolored, black, and there is a hole on the skin. I touched him and his pretty hot! From the look of his head and neck he needs antibiotics.
I am alreafy asking my vet for a fecal float, without office visit. I appreaciate all of your observations regarding this situation.
