That's funny, my husband took one look at the roo, one look at the feathers all over the coop and said, "What attacked him??" LOL. So glad to hear this is the norm!!
I have a Production Red rooster who is right around a year and a half old and I noticed today that he is molting badly. It's October in Northern NY and getting quite cold. Doesn't it seem odd that he would molt now that it is colder and he won't have the feathers to protect him? Is this normal?
After a horrible raccoon attack last fall, I am left with only a huge Production Red roo and a Golden Sebright Bantam hen. She has laid 9 perfect eggs. Is it at all possible that the roo was able to fertilize them?

Yesterday 10:42 pm I have found that a few physio sessions a day in a warm bathtub works wonders for leg injuries
I'm going to try that! (while my husband is at work!!)
Thank you!
In the winter, you can grow sprouts of any kind
I suppose, but I don't want to dig through 3 feet of snow to find them!
Maybe I can do some veggies inside for the chickens this winter, tho!
