I truly have no idea what I would even need to do to eat them. Do we separate and feed special food or just do it. No one around here wants roosters they all want hens.

they are big and beautiful. comb and wattles deep red. We have had a cold snap and I am surprised they are so good. My husband wants to eat them but we don't normally do that. We have dual purpose birds but we only do eggs.

We hatched 11 eggs in September and received at least 6 roosters but I think 7 and rest hens. The roosters are not friendly mainly one. Is this because there are to many of them? And if so what should I do with all but one or 2. They also are going after the rest of my hens. I don't have enough...

I will get a picture in the am and put it up for everyone to see. Thank you all so much for the help and support.

there are no vets within 200 miles at least that I can find that look at chickens.

Update on Tom the scab/ hard black area came off that he was constantly scratching. He actually scratched it off himself and his eye is still there!!! It is red and swollen, but he is constantly scratching still that it is starting to get all dark and hard again...any suggestions or thoughts on...

Yes he is eating and drinking on his own. The orher side of his head is fine. And i have been do ik ng okntment daily sometimes two to three times.

My husband thinks its an empty socket. Hes missing part of his cushion as well. But the black hard callus is what we think hes scratching because its healing under it maybe.

I dont know its got a hard cruat over it. I warms soak it but cant seem to get it off.

How do i do that

He constantly sctraches it with his claws making it worse.

My rooster was in a fight with weasel 2 weeks ago his eye is no better. Attached is a picture. He is eating and drinking. But not really walking much very unsteady. Can i put him back with hens? Its his far vision eye. I also have another rooster i have tried soaks, abx ointment, eye gel.

how do you stop them from scratching it with their claws. He got into fight with we think a weasel. Its been over a week and still looks bad. I keep warm packs and ointments but he keeps scratching it so I am assuming it itches him. And I think that's why it still is draining. I somehow need to...
