we have two 6 week old buff Cochin chicks . one seems to have had its toes attacked by something. we have mice in the byre and someone suggested it could be them Ive never heard of this before as anyone else. Ive treated with topical and injected antibiotics because the wound looked infected. if not mice what Else could cause this wound.
