Last week a raccoon broke into my "raccoon proof" coop by breaking a skylight vent. The damage was three dead chickens and one injured chicken. Poor Percher almost had her head bit off but made it. Her comb and nares were badly damaged and her beak is now slightly misaligned (see photo). We keep her inside at night and in a separate run outside during the day. See is not that active but otherwise okay but she won't eat or drink on her own. We have been feeding her water with a eye dropper which she will swallow if it is put in her beak. We have given her a bit of food that way too but not much as we were expecting her to start eating on her own. It has been a week and her condition seems stable but she shows no interest in food or water. She can open her beak with out obvious pain.
Any ideas on what to do or what is wrong with her?
