    Oahu - Need Safe Home for 1 Rooster/3-5 Hens

    I mean, I'm military. I'm from Kentucky. We had dog fights, we put furniture in the back of pickup trucks, hung out on farms with bon fires every weekend, wrestled around, and took pride in being country. I feel like we weren't too different from locals back home. We just had creeks/lakes...

    Oahu - Need Safe Home for 1 Rooster/3-5 Hens

    This is legit. You were wrong, you're more on top of this stuff than me! lol I'm finally getting in touch with someone on other Facebook groups. But, it just feels weird saying, I got a home for them. But, it's not really a home. More like a place. I asked how the rooster wouldn't be...

    Oahu - Need Safe Home for 1 Rooster/3-5 Hens

    I found the article, you are correct: Proposal to eradicate feral chickens moves through the legislature The feed is focused on birth control and it has been pushed by the Humane Society, but the primary purpose of the bill is focused on lethal eradication. Either way, sounds like housing is...

    Oahu - Need Safe Home for 1 Rooster/3-5 Hens

    No pictures. I have emailed housing asking them if there's an alternative to destroying them. It is unlikely, but I'm probably going to get in trouble since I have baby chicks from kids killing their mother spurring the whole chicken incident after living here in peace for years. I don't want...

    Oahu - Need Safe Home for 1 Rooster/3-5 Hens

    Aloha, Are you 100% sure on this? The forced contraception feed has been approved for a while now I believe. This new feed is to actually kill them, but has been kept relatively quiet. I read one news article speaking as to it being a topic for the city council, but can no longer find it...

    Oahu - Need Safe Home for 1 Rooster/3-5 Hens

    Aloha, I live on the island of Oahu - Based on initial reports, the Honolulu city council passed a law today that allows chickens to be fed poisonous food to euthanize them. The island of Oahu now views them as pests and plans to eradicate them with the same prejudice as that of other rodents...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    So I returned yesterday. I got my other rooster back from my son's girlfriends house. I looked outside today to see another rooster on top of him pulling at his neck. I immediately ran outside to intervene and collected him with no blood or significant damage done. He was breathing hard...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    It is with a heavy heart that I report that Zombie passed today. I am currently in Kentucky. Zombie was not doing well as I observed him on camera the past 2 weeks. He did not grow stronger. He struggled to climb up on our couch. The other chickens were picking on him repeatedly. A...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    Today, Zombie decided he was going to start to try to crow as he sat watching the other chickens in the backyard. It was very exciting as this was the first time he has been highly vocal since the accident. I took this as his request to go outside with the other chickens. He started walking...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    Aloha, Zombie is becoming slightly stronger today. However, he has developed a new habit. Instead of being content laying flat to rest - He has started propping himself against the corners of his recovery tote. I looked this up for roosters and quite a few things came up between parasites...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    Yeah my wife was the one that was like... He needs physical therapy outside in the soft grass. I was like... No no Zombie needs his epsom salt baths and R&R. But it was nice seeing him get around. As for the other chicken, it was just one being a jerk. The deformed one, Chicken Joe, is now...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    This just coming in.... ZOMBiES SPOTTED WALKING IN HAWAII! :eek: Tried to get a video of his gait so you all might be able to identify what is going on. My wife thinks it's his hip, but he's getting around a bit. Our deformed rooster immediately tried to attack him so I had to clear the...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    1 week since Zombie's incident and I come home again to another Hawaii downpour. Lots of chickens near the water drainage again. However, no other chickens are injured or hurt around my yard. As for Zombie, I made an improv sling but couldn't connect it to a lower anchor point. He sat in it...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    Aloha, Today he was a bit more energetic after resting all day in the dark while I was at work. He was able to sit up for a bit, but he is constantly refusing to put weight on his right leg only. It is also often folded under his body. I have reduced the olive oil. I made some oats, but I...

    Possible Rooster Fight... Barely moving, coughing up blood

    Just waking up. He's a bit drowsy. He comb has some noticeable scabbing, so I think healing is starting to pick up while inflammation is going down, so that's always a good thing. No significant milestones between yesterday afternoon and now so I was waiting to post updates. However, he is...
