I went up to find Bella's mother hurt yesterday. At first when I could see her through the pophole I thought she had her eye taken out! But luckily she didn't. I think rather she got her head/comb trapped in the treadle feeder and she must have pulled it out. I doubt it was fighting because she still has her place and none of the other girls had any blood at all. I washed her with some hippiscrub is warm water. I didnt get all the blood off her feathers because she started playing up but with the weather we have coming I'm sure that wont be a problem!

What a terrible accident, John. So good that she did not loose her eye. Will you be applying any wound spray on her head; which also help prevent the other chickens from being attracted to her bloody area? I hope she recovers fast.

I had some purple spray but we got mice at one point and I made the mistake of leaving it in the shed and they chewed a hole in it and it all leaked! I really need to get some more when I next have some money. All my money went to Bella's vet and feeding them!

Such a neat treat! Well, spoiled chickens : )

Thanks!
