My older hen ( six years ), Pebbles, as of today is acting lethargic and she isn’t eating ( VERY unlike her ), she was drinking a lot of water last week but not anymore. She was on her perch tonight, no pale comb, no feathers missing. She had a case of lice & mites before but they seemed to be gone as of a few months. We have contacted the vet but they have not responded yet. What can I do to keep her fairly happy until an appointment with the vet?
Next, the rooster problem. I have four roosters ( two silkie brothers, half a year old & two australorp brothers, almost a year old ), they have all lived happily to in peace, until today. The beta Australorp roo, Coconut 2, started ruthlessly attacking his brother, Comet. Comet has fairly minor peck wounds near the top of his head.
