ilovechickens Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Really don't know what to do about my bantam Faverolle-she's a lovely little thing, merrily chats away to anyone who will listen and is not being bullied by the others-however-she is pecking herself all the time -infact she pecks herself till she bleeds. I have bathed her, applied mite powder, sprayed her bits purple, applied wound powder but nothing seems to stop her. Really not sure what else to try-she started with under her wing, stopped that and now pecks under her leg. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovechickens Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Aah thank you-the worse thing is that shes such a lovely little thing-i popped her in a bucket of warm water to clean her off and she sat there very happily, occassionaly dozing-and she seems happy, if she was struggling them i would do the right thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovechickens Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 She has 'friends'-I have other chickens and they hang around all together-no bullying at all, she has hitched up with one of the pekin bantams and they potter around. I was worried because she is doing it to herself and not having it done to her-strange things arent they! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
