After a very successful, nearly two-week run, Frodo is unfortunately back in the collar again. Over the past few days she's been really nesty (tearing up paper strips-I put the grate back in her cage; going underneath her preening toys, so I had to take them out; even more cage aggressive) and suddenly incredibly clingy. On Wednesday night she made a small puncture in the same place on her leg again, and all day Thursday threw an absolute fit if I wasn't in the same room as her, and/or she wasn't sitting on me. She'd start worrying at the leg if I left the room for even a couple of minutes. We decided to put the collar on last night because I'm working today and tomorrow and we were afraid that she'd damage herself further if I wasn't home. Has anyone else had a nesty hen be so overly clingy? She's been clingy in the past (I've had her for 10 years now) but never like this. It seems like the further this mutilating problem of hers goes, the more confused I become over the cause.
