Update on my Orpington, Lady Lavender… she is still with us! I removed her from the coop with the two other hens, one of them was constantly attacking her. Some people suggested Mereck’s disease, but I feel like it is wry tail. Her tail feathers down and a large “bump/ hump” is on back on the right side. She has a great appetite and she is slowly moving around more. She tries to hide/keep away from the other girls when they are all out foraging in the back yard. Any suggestions on caring for a chicken with wry tai? Should I continue to keep her separate? She seems so scared of the one chicken that has attacked her in the past ( I keep an eye out for her when they are all out ).
Many Thanks!
