I noticed one chick is being pecked on the side of the face by every other chick that passes by. The stupid animal did not even try running away or turning her head. I have isolated her from the rest of them, a dime size spot on her side of the face is plucked clean and is a bloody mess. They are on Purina Start and Grow, are 1 month old tomorrow and no other animal is being pecked on. I got a few questions:
1, Do I treat the wounded area with anything or it should not be a problem healing since she is now alone. Not deep looks like a road rush with blood.
2, Once she heals and I put her back into gen pop and will she be picked upon again or once that annoying red target disappears the rest will not feel inclined to peck?
