Just keeps cluckin and cluckin and....

The chicken is still doing well. Her wing is extra crispy now and I will probably attempt to amputate the dead part some time this weekend, if I can find someone who will hold her while I do it. In 2 weeks I will be forced to place her back with the brood. I hope the placing her in the coop at night trick works. We will find out. She is very healthy acting so I have my fingers crossed.

Like the Energizer Bunny....

the chicken keeps going on and on and on and on........ It has been a month and the chicken is still a kicken. She is eating and seems to show signs of good energy. Her wing looks like a chunk of dried jerky glued to her side but other than that she is ok. She has not layed one egg since the attack and that is probably for the better. She needs to keep up her strength for healing than egg production. I am tempted to clip the wing at the joint. The way it was damaged it will never be able to be used again. I may wait a bit longer just to see how it is going to do first.

Thanks for all the well wishes.
