no new birds, and she’s still getting to food and water. Where she is separated, it is all fairly close together. So she isn’t walking around too much to get to anything she might need. Thanks for linking the thread!
No swelling, and seems to be a little limp maybe? her leg just hangs there when I pick her up. She doesn’t try to get her footing like normal. And when I put pressure on her pad, there was zero reaction to try to curl her toes or move her leg. her foot just stayed in the flat footed position...
Hi everyone!
I have a 2 year old hen. She began limping on Sunday, so today is day 5. It actually seems to be getting worse because now she is not putting her foot on the ground unless she absolutely has to. Today I noticed she isn’t curling her toes when I put pressure on the pad of her foot...
We have 5 roos to re-home! One is a pure Lavender Orpington. He is about 1.5 years old.
The other 4 are his offspring and crossed with Ameraucana (different hens). Two of the 4 have the fluffy cheeks and 2 do not.
Sorry for the delay! Im just now seeing this. To be honest, I’m really not sure! Since he does have the mix of both his size could go either way. He is on the bigger size compared to our other Roos from the same brood. And yes! we do actually have other Roos from the same brood that we are...
I can meet half way.
Do your chickens free range? Will this roo be used for meat? Or as a pet/protection for your flock, etc? Do you have any other roosters? More than anything I want to make sure he goes to a good and happy home.
Yes, he’s nice. I will say, he was a bit skittish and he needed time to warm up to me. We have been working on this with treats and him following the lead of our older girls. He is still hesitant time and again, but now knows I have the good stuff and makes his way over. But hasn’t shown any...
Hi everyone! We have a roo that is in search of his forever home.
We have too many roosters. He is a little shy of 3 months old. He is an Ameraucana (hen) and lavender Orpington (rooster) mix and is beautiful! His tail is the iridescent green/blue!
