    Rooster unable to stand

    Nothing there at all. The scales look harder than they should be on his legs so I've worked paraffin into them in case of mites or any other nasties (plus the treatment)

    Rooster unable to stand

    I actually had considered slings.. but I'll look into that again. It started on his left leg and still seems to be left more than right. Both legs more and toes will curl round my fingers. He won't flatten his left foot out to stand.. and just a bit more with right. First couple of days right...

    Rooster unable to stand

    I can't remember the actual name but I have a lice powder hopefully also coming tomorrow for him. I haven't actually seen eggs.. but I've physically seen the lice moving around. Since bath and ivermectin most seem dead but I still see moving ones. He has no swelling, scabs or shows any pain or...

    Rooster unable to stand

    I have an about three year old salmon faverolle roo who.. about a week ago seemed to get quiet. Now he's not a mad crowing type. And will have days where he just isn't that noisy so this didn't really mean anything to me. But five days ago I found him sitting on the floor alone rather than on...

    Rooster Complaint. ...

    Well I just have some pygmy hedgehogs and reptiles which local kids found out about and blabbed. Nobody sees them and they're all secure indoors minding their own business lol.

    Rooster Complaint. ...

    So and update... we found out who the complaint was coming from and now it gets very odd... they are not even on my street and at least 50 houses away. You can't even hear the rooster from there! I don't know them at all and have never spoken to them until yesterday. Yesterday I got another...

    Rooster Complaint. ...

    I measured 80bd on his very loudest crow... right next to me... from just ten feet away it was less and from my back door (the closest house to him) it was more like 60-70db background noise was about 40-50s. .. but with other sounds louder than him. (Like one of the nicer neighbours motorcycle...

    Yup there's no rules or regulation on the keeping of roosters or hens (unless you have over 50)

    Rooster Complaint. ...

    I think part of the reason I'm annoyed is that he crows a max of four times (about ten or so crows and it lasts maybe 3min tops) over a four hour period. Usually he only does it once or twice though... and at the same time there are people working on motorbikes, running machinery etc all of...

    Rooster Complaint. ...

    I thought that but I'm not entirely sure on who did it :/ just can't see how they can moan... a few houses down they have dogs barking non stop at all hours.. neighbors at the back using tools in the night... yet they have an issue with him

    Rooster Complaint. ...

    About a week ago, I received a letter from the Council notifying me that there had been a complaint about my rooster crowing. It didn't specify time of day but did hint with some choice words about "cockerels crowing at dawn" but they wont give me any specifics. I've had Napoleon for over a...
