Tom's latest victim

That Turkey must DIE!

Ok, I have no hard forensics to back this up but I have seen Tom grab my chicken girls by the neck and yesterday Queenie was found bloody in the chicken coop with her comb not only damaged but partially torn off.  We brought her inside and have her in a cage giving her lots of treats so she can heal.  I was going to give her a day or so before trying to wash the blood out of her feathers.  Don't want to tramatize her any more then necessary at this point.

Here are my attempts to get some photos:

Queenie, turn around please

Queenie, look up please, stop moving

Please baby hold still

Good girl.

As you can (kinda) see the back portion of the comb is torn loose and there is lots of dried blood all over her pretty white head and down her neck.  She is usually totally white except for her bright red comb and waddles. 

Just going to spoil her to get the chance to heal because if chickens see red they will peck at the area and keep re-injuring her even to the point of killing her.  She still gave me an egg this morning though.  She has been one heck of an egg layer and I hope this hasn't caused her too much stress.  We definitely need to get more white egg layers in the flock.
