    Rooster neck injury w/Pics

    Thank you! I washed off some matted feathers this morning and then applied Bacitracin to the area, especially where the skin meets the muscle. He's in the coop with his ladies resting. I hope he makes it. He is a tough bird.

    Rooster neck injury w/Pics

    Hello all. Not looking for criticism. I've read many threads now about keeping dogs, especially puppies with free range fowl. I understand that it is my job to adequately train my canine to behave well and obey only my commands when he goes for "prey". He is a 6 month Akita Inu. We adopted him...

    Our rooster Jay Jay injured by our puppy. I'm a terrible chicken keeper and have learned several lessons the hardest way.

    First time Butchering

    If you don't mind my asking, how did it the slaughter go? I'm a first time butcherer as well and wonder if you can give and tips that weren't already covered in your thread. My babe is an older roo, about 17 weeks, and I'm taking the advice of skinning him as best I can. At least then I can...

    Young Rooster (3-4 months old) already showing signs of aggression...help!

    NewChickenMom2014, I am in the same boat! Started my first flock in early Feb. Purchased a straight run of mixed chicks. We ended up with some beautiful roosters and only 2 hens.

    Magical pullets that crow?...or Roos?

    Thanks again for everyone's feedback. I've had to seperate the two large males (Pan/Penny and Louie) at night to dampen their crows. Just letting them out after the neighborhood wakes up. Luckily we will not be eating our chicks this time. The farm I bought them from will take the males back...

    Magical pullets that crow?...or Roos?

    Daisy is one of our sweetest...I can take another shot tomorrow, but this is the best I have now. I can tell you her comb has multiple ridges and is a light flesh-colored pink, not red like the other roos. Are you all sure about Jezebelle? She is the 3rd pic and Chocobo is 2nd. Thanks again for...
