    Sick Rooster

    Well I know that the black and white chickens are female and I'm pretty sure two of my buffs are female but I could certainly be wrong on that! My rooster is the same. Going to make an appointment at a vet to have him looked at. I'm thinking it may be a broken leg or dislocation?

    NY chicken lover!!!!

    I'm a bit more concerned about the fact that he really isn't walking hardly at all. I'm not sure if he has a broken leg perhaps?

    I have a flock of 5 hens and 1 rooster (as well as 6 ducks). I bought them 10 weeks ago from Tractor Supply. I noticed from early on that the hens were sitting on top of the rooster. Being new to this I didn't see a problem or even how I would stop them from sitting on him. I have noticed...
