I was outside with my chickens the other day when a dog attacked them one of my chickens all most died. I thought she was tramatized because she was in the egg boxes with one of my other chickens instead of on the perches so I brought her in my house and I saw that she was missing feathers on both her wings one of them was from clipping them like a year ago and the other she only had a couple primary feathers on that wing. She is not the most friendly chicken so I do not pick her up a lot so I do not know how long she was like that. All of my chickens including Willow have molted so I don't know any other explanation to why she doesn't have any primary feathers on one wing. I went out there this morning and she was in the egg boxes. I did not see any other injuries on her other than her wings and a nick on the top of her head right next to her beak. I think that happend when the dog ran through the fence and the wire might have cut her. I dont know what to do and if its just nothing to worry about. I am lost please help.
