Silkie hen with bleeding neck injury! Help!

I'm thinking she may be similar to some white silkies sold by certain hatcheries that are for production or meat. I'm not sure if they still have them but I think Cackle used to.

Possibly. I’ve heard silkies are good for meat. It’s strange though. She lays eggs almost as big as my duck eggs! She used to anyway

We got her from Tractor Supply. Not sure where Tractor Supply gets their stock from.

TSC - at least the local store, sells the furthest from SOP silkies imaginable. One year their chicks were of such poor quality that an entire tub did not sell. I believe they had to sell the entire lot for $5. Many were single combed, non crested, hard feathered, over sized, missing toes -------------- and the list goes on. By any chance do you deal with the Ringoes, NJ store ?
