My poor baby hen just got attacked by a dog and I am just fuuuming over it. She's in the middle of a molt and is already stressed out. I haven't had a chance to look her over much because she is soooo stressed and uncoordinated but I did for a decent wound on her back. I don't think it got the muscle but there could be more wounds I don't know about. Should I look her over good or let her rest and look later.
I just rinsed he with betadine and water and she's in a laundry basket covered up. What else can I do at this point. Should I try feeding her or giving her water or just let her rest? How does her prognosis look? Does her molting make her weaker to fight this?
This is my absolute favorite pet I have, I raised her from a baby and she's 4 and I only have had 4 others that came and went quickly so I need to do everything I can!!
