Please help!!! Chicks skull is showing!

Ok I'll get updates in two days so Monday. @Sasha-chickens I didn't put any glue on her head, there was not enough skin. I just put neasporn on the wound.

Some broodies will go after chicks that aren't there own. That's the risk with having multiple nests close together. Chicks can get too close to one and be killed

Iv had that happen a couple of times. My hens usually get along well when they go broody. They like to set on eggs and babies together. I did just put this chick in the pen so that could be why too.

What do you mean you just put the chick in the pen?

Would any one like a update in a day or two. Thanks for the help every one. I'm glad she will survive.. I really appreciate it!!!

Yes, please do keep us updated on how she gets along.

I just put the mom and baby's she hatched with the other broody moms. That's what I ment.

Whew, okay. I thought you meant a single brooder chick introduced.

I had a tenweek old that got jumped on by one of my big chickens two days ago, and has a remarkably similar injury, is it possible one of the older chicks pounced on your little?

She died last night. I gave her water and food and she drank water and was walking around and peeping. I think she drank to much water and drowned her self when she went to sleep.
