Hey all,
Last month my chicken broke her wing. I believe it was an attack of some sort. Not having a vet nearby that helps chickens, my mom and I tried healing her wing ourselves. Which for the most part, it worked. No infections whatsoever and the feathers she lost during the attack grew back. She’s eating, walking, and drinking just fine.
HOWEVER,
I noticed today that the place where she got injured healed, but it didn’t heal around her bone. Meaning, a tiny part of her bone is sticking out and exposed with a small scab around it. I attached a picture below.
Anyways, I’m not sure what to do about this because I’m assuming that’s not a good thing (despite her acting completely fine and moving the wing)
What should I do?
