Warning graphic my chicken got attacked by hawks 😭😡

[ChuckenWing]

The first thing you need to do it CATCH it and treat for shock. I understand that this is upsetting, try to calm down. She can survive this, you just need to get her caught and setup for recovery.
Once you catch her, put her in a dog crate with puppy pads inside your house so ou can monitor her. Offer her sugar and electrolyte water, and keep her environment calm and relaxed.
Once she's recovered from shock, flush her wounds with the solutions mentioned above. Then cover in a thick layer of Neosporin without pain relief. Flush daily, and reapply Neosporin. Clip any feathers out of the way of the wound.

I will try I dont have a dog cage but I have crates It’s just that I’m worrid for the 2nd She might not make it she is sleeping outside she can’t walk because she is reserving energy and I have a worrie about cats

Clean wounds with a saline solution. Use an antimicrobial spray, such as vetericyn after.
Put the chicken in a large dog crate, or some other box inside your house or garage. Make sure it is in a safe, dark, quiet place. Offer it water with electrolytes. Do not force it to drink, as you can easily drown a chicken. If it will eat, which it most likely won't for awhile, let it eat. Offer mash (mushy wet chicken feed all smashed up) and scrambled eggs.

I will try thank you so much for the feeding advice as the chicken would not eat, it will give it fermented oats Or oats mixed with water

How is your Silkie?

You don't have to have fancy supplies to treat wounds.
First you need to gather up your hen and access her wounds.
Warm water with a little mild soap can be used to clean most wounds on the body if you don't have an antiseptic for wounds. For the head, I would take care and use warm water with a bit of salt dissolved in it. Your goal is to help rinse away dirt and debris that may be in the wounds.
Once you get the wounds cleaned, blood washed away and the feathers trimmed a little, you can tell more about the damage.
What do you have for putting on the wounds? Do you have any triple antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or store brand? Vetericyn spray? Do you have any Iodine? Coconut oil? Vaseline? Honey? Sugar?
Help us out by giving us some info about the supplies you do have and we can help you figure out what to use to treat injuries. There's always a way.

Hydration first. Always give fluids, then if she's drinking, add wet feed. Warmed sugar water is good to give or you have them electrolytes.

You can place her in crate, tote or box lined with an old towel or put some clean straw or shavings in there, something to give her a bit of cushion. Put her box where she will be out of the weather and where the cats can't mess with her. Do you have a corner of a garage, shed or outbuilding where you can put her?

No I want it to live but I don’t know how it will heal it’s still alive

How does it look now that you have cleaned and dressed the wounds?

She needs to be sheltered INSIDE, fed, have her wounds cleaned properly, and medical care/treatment.

Please dear one, if you want to save your silkie, please listen to these people and take action! Your silkie needs help! Give it attention to it's wounds. Like the above posts have mentioned. Give the mentioned kind of food, water, and medicine. But most importantly give her lots of love. May your silkie recover.

@ChuckenWing could you ask your Parents to help you? I know this must be so distressing for you, and you sound so upset about this situation You shouldn’t have to deal with this on your own. My advice would be to ask your parents to help, show them this thread, they can help you follow the good advice given and hopefully your hen will recover. Sending you big hugs and please update us.

guys dont look at this if your squeamish This is a miserable message I am sad to tell you my silkies got attacked by hawks How do I care for it, Waring:Graphic ImagesView attachment 3062252:

I hope she's still alive, but I have had good success with Blu-kote. It conceals the wound better. Red makes other birds peck. I'd separate her until she's better. We had to keep one in the bathroom for a few weeks. We set up a makeshift Brooder for her and gave her attention.
