thank you both for the tips. i did move them closer to my roosters and they crow a bit; then my dh had a power washer going for a day-all day. their new cages have nesting boxes that are dark and double decker, he stays on the top bunk. today he had his ears back at me when i opened the nest box door, so i used a stick to pet and rub him, then i gave him 1 raisin, he didnt eat it. i used a stick cuz he looked different at me today, more agressive, may have been my imagination, but i wasnt taking any chances. i will weigh him tonight to make sure of his weight.
i change their water bottles out ea morning and night if they drink more than 1/2 the bottle, his was full this morning. and i moved his hay and leaves just to see if he moves them. i dont see much poo or pee either? i hope he is not impacted. i will have my dh help me hold him while i palpate his stomach, not sure what to feel for, except for hardness, but i need to learn where his bowls are.
i will keep an eye on him.
thanks for your help
