I'm so sorry 💔😭

Tagging @Miss Lydia and @New duck mommy 2021 please help!

Hello! This looks like she was stung. I actually just had a hen that got stung!

Before it was finished! Haha tried to dig through the hardware apron my hubby installed.

Probably! Hard to say when they're this little

@Miss Lydia please help!

@Wyorp Rock @azygous @Eggcessive please help!

Those are very good signs. Keep taking care of the wound, she'll heal up quickly. Is she getting her wound wet when she's swimming? If she is you'll need to clean it afterwards and redress it.

It depends if the feather follicles were damaged. My rooster was scalped and is mostly healed. One narrow ribbon of missing feathers. How is she eating and drinking?

Hi! I'm so sorry! Did you see maggots anywhere? Meat birds generally don't have long life spans, he may have had a heart attack. Can you post pictures of your silkie roo?

@Kiki @azygous @Eggcessive please help!

Hi! If it was ripped off she wouldn't be able to hold it in the closed position. It would just hang loosely. Clean the wounds with saline and then slather with plain antibiotic ointment, twice a day and sniff it every couple of days to make sure it doesn't stink, which means it's infected...

Hi! How old is she? Is she laying?

@Wyorp Rock @azygous @Eggcessive please help!

I'm so sorry! Argh! All right got cheerio, can you offer her watermelon and raw yolk, see if that will entice her. Also try some freshly cooked ground beef, maybe a tablespoon or so.

I haven't read that about liquid poop. But I would hold off on antibiotics, esp since she doesn't have injuries. I would keep the injured hens separated, the wounded one will need to be kept away until she's solidly healed, probably a month or more.

Hello! You're doing great! Clean the wounds and keep them covered. They're good to become a greasy mess but it will all get fixed up when she's able to dust baths. For Tammy I'd offer some plain Gatorade or electrolytes if you have them and keep her in a semi darkened room. Look her over...

I'm glad she made it! I've read posts that sometimes it could be genetics or it could be the incubator. Tagging @Kiki !

Hey! Did baby make it?

Hi! I would finish the zip the take the cap off and let her push out.
