I had this same type of injury on one of my hens. The skin is gone and the hen doesnt or cant open her eyes. Also , she wont stand or walk. I examined her legs and seem fine. I wonder if she wont try to stand or walk because she cant see or if it affected her ears in some way that she cant get her balance? What caused this injury? Hi.

So sorry to hear about your chick--has it recovered? My hen was also totally scalped and her skin was also open to the shoulders. I could easily see her skull. You can see her original injury here: http://bonafidefarm.com/2012/07/29/how-you-dont-want-to-find-your-chicken/ The several posts I wrote on Cora show a pretty accurate timeline of her healing. It's been just about two months since her attack and she's all healed up though she still has about a fingernail size bald patch on the side of her head where her feathers may or may not grow back. Let me know if I can be of any more assistance. Good luck! Hi, Chelsea! So sorry to hear about your chick–has it recovered?

The several posts I wrote on Cora show a pretty accurate timeline of her healing. It’s been just about two months since her attack and she’s all healed up though she still has about a fingernail size bald patch on the side of her head where her feathers may or may not grow back.

Let me know if I can be of any more assistance. Good luck!

If so, how long did it take to start growing skin over the skull? Her skin/tissue is completely gone from top of eyes to neck close to shoulders. Thank you so much, any reply is super appreciated!
