Hello!
I need help with my rooster chanticleer. About two years ago he was involved in an accident wherein he became paralyzed. Luckily after months of treatment he recovered enough to be able to walk around by himself again. He's basically all better except he still sometimes falls down when turning but he can get back up on his own. The problem comes in with the hens. They've decided that his legs taste good and have been picking at them none stop, opening up wounds on his legs. We've separated him from them until they heal but today I thought he was healed enough and put him back out with them only for them to start pecking his legs again. I sometimes use rooster booster peck-no-more but it only has a temporary effectiveness.
Does anyone else have any ideas on how to prevent the hens from hurting chanticleer?
Thank you all!
