    Sick rooster?

    Thank you. I will check these things today. He is less than a year old. We have not had any new chickens recently, the only new thing is that I’ve allowed them to free range quite a bit more than usual. I have not seen coughing, sneezing or mucous. It looks like he tries to crow, lifts his head...

    Sick rooster?

    Thank you. He makes the motion like he’s going to crow or cough but makes no sound. I do not see him shaking his head, not sure about closing his eyes. How would I go about giving him olive oil?

    Sick rooster?

    He has been mostly just sitting around today but when I approach he will get up and move. He makes the motion of trying to crow or cough or something but nothing comes out. He is free range quite often. He eats chicken feed from the feed store and whatever fruit and vegetables I put out...

    Sick rooster?

    I think my rooster may be sick. He lost his crow and his comb and wattle look purplish. He isn’t walking around too much today either. He is a silver laced Orpington, almost a year old. I don’t know how to post pics. What can I do please?
