rooster attacked chick

You could try to give 1/4 of a low dose (81mg) aspirin. I'm guessing on the dose/ it's 1/2 for a full size chicken. I don't think you have anything to lose by trying.


** If you have a real anti-inflammatory as mentioned above that would be better.**

will do, all the stores are closed so might go ask the neighbors.

I would just let him rest. It has not been very long since the injury, and it may take some time to see if her is going to recover. Do you have any pictures of him since the injury?

Hopefully he will have more energy later on. It is hard to know for sure if he will survive, but I hope so, and time will tell.
