    Rooster with a Broken Hip

    I have an 8 month Cuckoo Marans rooster who has had a really rough winter. I'm assuming he got pushed off the roost in the coop on 1/20 because he was fine earlier in the day and the next day he was limping and not putting pressure on his left leg. We brought him in, I checked him out for...

    Just yesterday, I noticed that my rooster, Reggie, was only facing everything with one side.
