What’s weird is this just became apparent in the last week. I had moved this flock into a new run, I picked them all up to move them and nothing was abnormal.
I just got back from a week long vacation and noticed that one of my young roosters has started to look hunched in his back. He seemed perfectly fine before I left, and he’s the only one showing this. Does anyone have any thoughts on what could be going on? Seems to be eating and drinking fine.
It really is 😞 I’m sorry for your loss

Thank you! He’s a good boy, looking out for his ladies. Unfortunately, I had a pair of Rhode Island red hens, and my favorite was attacked by a hawk. 😞 I decided to incubate some of her eggs and some of my other Rhode Island Reds who’s still around. I did not think all 9 eggs were going to...

The mom is a typical brown rir, the dad is a colorful Americana. A close friend who has New Hampshire red and americana mixed chickens has some pretty colorful hens. Hoping mine would turn out that way too!
Funny joke 🙄 I’ve actually asked a few fellow chicken keepers already, everyone had a different opinion! So nope, I didn’t rely on AI. That’s why I’m here asking too.
