Pulet is being attacked by my three cockerels

[Isyovi]

It's mating season over here, and one of my pullets is clearly a favorite. I was checking up on her this evening and she has a bloody face. They pecked a couple of pieces off of her comb and i just feel really bad for her. She is one out of 8 pullets (i know, probably need more) but they have enough others to go after. How do i treat it? Do i need desinfectant?

Get rid of the cockerels before they result in her death.

I agree with @sourland. As far as dressing the wound, Blu-kote works well for all minor cuts and wounds. I've used it on combs/wattles many times. Your local feed store should have it, but it's also available online. Good luck.

We can probably keep them seperated for a while. It's a shame they need to be kept in their coop because of a bird flu. Otherwise they would have more space so she can get away from them.

Thanks! Will look into it and try to buy something for tomorrow.

Going to do that tomorrow! I just ordered a blue desinfectant.
