This morning I went out first thing to feed the chickens.  One of my hens was bloodied.  I had a heck of a time catching her - in the rain no less, and my rooster nearly had a heart attack over the whole episode.  I couldn't leave her there though - the other birds would pick at her endlessly if I did.

I hot her inside and wrapped her in a towel to keep her still.  Sierra scurried to get random first aid supplies.  I got her cleaned up best I could - what a mess.  I decided at least for today I'd keep her in my back bathroom - I'd like to clean her further when I have time and hopefully seal the wound up before turning her loose again..

Jeez - whattaway to start a Friday......
