    Urgent. Sick Rooster Lying down w labored breathing in isolation cage.

    Thank you everyone! His comb is red. He’s eating like a lil monster and poops look solid and within normal range. Seeing doc today for the bumblefoot and butt. I will keep you posted. I love this group and am grateful! Btw he needs to get back out to the flock, the hens are a disaster without him.

    Thank you for taking the time to share thoughts. I’ve had hens before but this is my first rooster. I am glad to know they are sensitive. He has medicated water and some egg and all flock if he wants. Breathing very labored! No vitamins in his water. I hope it’s okay to keep him separate...
