    ⠀ feeding roosters

    Dr. Roeder, I live high in the California Sierras. Our winters can be extreme with low temps and heavy snows. I deworm and debug every 8 weeks. My challenge is keeping my roosters in good condition. They eat well but still lose weight. I keep them separated from the hens, and feed them...
