Pink Ladies Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 An update for all of those people who where very helpful with the problem of poor Ruby being pecked to pieces.... After a couple of days of waiting for her wounds to clear and to reciever the 'sprays' in the post we returned her to the bullies. She didn't seem to mind that her bottom had been sprayed purple and that she had had a foul smelling spray put all over her After a few pecks from Babs, things seem to have settled down and harmony has returned, although it looks like Babs is trying to be top chicken! She does have diarrhoea and we are not sure why but at least she is happy. We have put in lots of bark chippings into the run which they seem to love and spend most of their time digging in them. Thanks for the good advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink Ladies Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 After a lovely week-end Babs is back to her horrid new ways and is pecking Ruby again and making her bottom bleed. We have resprayed her and Ruby didn't like the taste at all and was trying to wipe her beak clean. I hope all is ok in the Egloo tonight. Does anyone know where we can get beak bumpers from as I think we need them ASAP.!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
