Oh no! Poor baby!Someone attacked Chance today. I found him on the ground in a corner when I came home. I’m going to try checking the camera playback but where he was is out of the picture, I think. But it might give me a clue.
I put a little neosporin on it and tube fed him some, since his crop was empty. But he seems to be ok for now.

Poor guy! That's why I like to see my squeakers hang in their nest box til they are able to fly and escape a bit. Still, if they get attacked they can't really defend themselves. I'm gonna be so worried if the 2 newest make it to fledge. BTW, that's very similar to what Doba's wound looked like.Someone attacked Chance today.

If I lived closer, I would be knocking on your door to purchase a hen.
I have doubts that a frying pan is a good choice... Every time I come out with one,,,, the chickens are crowding ALL OVER ME trying to get the leftover egg omelet.(lil cannibalsMaybe you need to show them the frying pan?

Are you sure that you live in a Volunteer State, or are you in an Eastern Block Nation with a 10 hour earlier time zone
You can live in downtown Chicago (HIGHRISE) and own a pet pig. Chicago allows chickens and roosters. Where I live chickens are allowed.(hens) 3 blocks north of me (Franklin Park) and 4 blocks west of me (Northlake) NO CHICKENS, DUCKS, etc.
If I could Id send ya a couple..If I lived closer, I would be knocking on your door to purchase a hen.
My Cessna Citation is out of gas,,, so I would have to drive 2 days.
I would like to add one AC hen , one Serama hen, and one Icelandic hen, to my pet assortment.
This is what inspired me to get an Icelandic.

I had that happen to squeak when she was about the same age. It looks bad but should heal fine. I used manuka honey on it. I think she went to close to another nest.Someone attacked Chance today.
