    Whats wrong with my Roo?

    Thank you, we have done exactly all those things with really no change to be honest. Except he will perk up just before bedtime around 7:30-8:00 pm. I took a video of him. But its took lg to load. He kind of walks sporadically, like he's looking for a roost.. idk, it just makes me sad.

    Something killed my silkie

    no they were just out playing and free-ranging last night. We do not allow them out of their run/coop area unless they are supervised.. She was fine at the time they were put back in their coop for the evening.
