HI all, I'm new here as of today. I'm also new to raising chickens.
I have 24 chickens that are 7 wks old, and we put them outside a few days ago.
Yesterday, I went out to feed them and found 3 that were wounded from other chickens pecking at them.
We brought them back in the house and they are healing.
My question is, I was doing some research last night and read somewhere that if you pick vicks on the chickens that are being pecked at, the peckers will stop. Does this work? if so can you put it on the wound?
Thanks for the help
Deanne
