I have a week old bantam chick that fell out of the coop and got stuck btwn a straw bale and the fencing around the bottom of the coop. It was super cold and she nearly froze, but a mouse bit her on the foot while she was stuck and she lost 1 toe and I think might lose a second one. I'm going to try to take her to the vet tomorrow, but she's still going to need time to heal some b4 going back with mom and the other 4 chicks. She's bonded with me a little, but if I can get her fixed, will I be able to sneak her back under mom again? I'm worried she won't take to mom a second time after being in the house. Since she's a bantam, I'm hoping she's still small enough to put her back under mom at night and since chickens can't count, she'll accept her back with the others.
Has anyone tried this type 're introduction or have any other ideas?
