thenewchick Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I am not sure how (must have been a fluke) I managed to get a bumper bit on my chicken, but now I want to remove it. My chicken is eating and drinking but seems to be losing weight. I was wondering if anyone had any tips/hints how to get if off quickly? She seems to keep moving her head and I can't seem to get it back off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poached Egg Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 You should be able to remove it by prising it open-reverse of the way it was fitted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenewchick Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 Ah! Easier said than done!! Now she has it on she just keeps shaking her head as soon as I go near her!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bantambabe Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 we fitted ours by catching the girls (easier said than done), son swaddling them in a towel with just head free and then I used one hand to hold head and other with circlip pliers - I guess i'd take them off the same way?
