    Injured rooster

I didn’t really want to separate him for fear of him not being able to go back but there are 14 others so he would definitely get more injured!

    Hello, last weekend I got two POL hens and have been keeping a close eye on them for any signs of anything and yesterday I noticed one of them was exhibiting the neck jerking of trying to adjust her crop. I checked on her later and she seemed ok. Today she is doing it constantly and her crop...

    Hen-broody or poorly?

    Thank you all for your helpful replies! I will try and get a video today. Otherwise she is acting fine once you remove her and she is on her feet. I’m not wanting her to sit on eggs as currently incubating so will try to break the cycle! Thanks so much again!
