CannyCat Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 We initially just had Matilda and Bertha, and then Bridget came about a month ago. Matilda has had a bare botty for at least 6 months. Nothing we have done has helped, not even stockholm tar! The culprit? Bertha-the-Bully - we have caught her in the act several times, and Matilda just stands there and takes it Then this morning we look out of the window and guess who has a coordinating bare botty? Bertha! (Couldn't happen to a nicer chicken, hee hee ) but now we have double the problem luckily Bridget has the sense to stay out of their way, and is thus far retainging her bum-coverage...... We have some bumper bits and hope that will sort them out. OH - Bertha has a big chip off the top of her beak. It looks a bit raw, infact, and we're not sure how she did it. is that something to worry about, or will it heal itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
