Hi I have one rooster(handsome) he is about 5 or so months I raised him from a baby with 2 hens and another rooster all the same age. All free range. About 6 weeks ago the 2 hens and the other rooster got killed by a fox so that left handsome all by himself. He seemed ok just stayed close to me and to the house. Btw try were/ are silkies. Today I noticed that he isn’t really moving much he will walk the sit in one place for a long time ie: my husband was working out in the yard today handsome wattled over to him then just sat there and even after my husband walked away handsome didn’t move then tonight after dark I went to check on him and make sure he was ok and he was in the pen not the coop part where he usually sleeps ( he never went inside) which is not like him at all! I picked him up and he was making sortof a hiccup kinda noise but not really. Also I live in newengland and the temp has dropped a lot here in the last few weeks. Is he dying of lonilness or us he just cold? Please some one help me
