Unsecure chicken perches

[annettec]

After our dreadful attack on my 8 week old Legbar by my Hybrid girls last week she has made a miraculous recovery.

I am keen to reintroduce her back to her little bantam friends she is living alongside them in a cage in the walk in run, although not impressed by this set up.

She is very bald on one side with some wounds that are nice and dry and scabbed over but does anyone know how long feathers take to grow back or even if they will ????

I am reluctant to fully introduce her back to them incase they have a little peck at her , they do free range together.

I think they take about 3 weeks, a bit of extra protein may help...

 

You could try to reintroduce in very short periods of time, and closely superviseded, then if all is well you could increase the time as the days go on.....
