Young chicken pecked on top of head!

[MsMickeyMom]

First, I have had chickens for about 5 years and this is the first year I've had problems getting the older ones used to the new, little ones (12 weeks old). I have been noticing they were picking on one in particular. It is one of the littlest. Yesterday, I found her trapped by the older ones. They had picked her head and wing bad enough it was bleeding. Her wing is fine but I'm worried about her head and her eye. I have been able to keep her eye open by soaking it with warm water and a Qtip. They pecked all the skin off her the top of her head and one side is down to bone. She is eating and drinking fine. I have her in a small kennel, inside my house. Is there anything I can do to help with skin regrowth and to keep infection away.

Please post a pic. There is a spray I use to help keep infection away on my poultry. I’m not home but when I’m back I’ll post a pic of it. I’m posting a pic of some vitamins you can add to her water

It’s just a boost for them. And if you don’t know how to post a pic just let me know and I’ll tell you.

I recently had an older chick half scalp a younger turkey poult in a similar way, though not involving her eye. I used blue kote on the whole back half of her head. She spent a day eating, drinking and sleeping a lot and has only improved since then.

Thank you. My girl seems to be ok. She is eating and drinking. I have added her "sister" in with her because she was hiding. I think they started picking on her. I guess they older ones don't like the breed.
