    Lavender Orpington Roosters

    Thank you everyone. We ended up processing two of them today. So now I have two roosters. I will either try to rehome the other one or see how it goes with two roosters.

    Lavender Orpington Roosters

    My coop size and flock size just can't take 4 roosters. I have 8 girls. We do not have any plans to build a seperate coop. We do not really have a space to do that.

    Lavender Orpington Roosters

    I have 4 lavender Orpington Roosters from the summer. I plan on keeping one. How do i decide which one. Also, I struggle with culling a rare breed like this. How do i look about rehoming the other three or should I just turn them into meat birds? A separate rooster coop is not an option for us.

    Chicken Wing Injury

    My one Isa browns left wing is drooping down. I am assuming broken. She is young just born this spring. Can I do anything at home to help fix this? Do they heal naturally? or do I have to put her down? Thanks!
