    Is this one way to tell if it's a rooster?

    Chickens are weird, that pecking order is a crazy thing. Roosters tend to try to be on the top of the order. Does any of the ones in question stay to the front of the pack? My Roo's were always the first to check who's approaching. That how I knew who were roo's.

    Injury to the skin

    Here is picture of my SS. She had severe frostbite. She decided to molt the night before a severe cold snap. I brought her inside and I am dosing her with aspirin and antibiotic ointment. Does anybody else have any other advice that might be helpful?

    injury to the skin, please help!

    I know, I don't like the thoughts of using heating lamps either. But it went from 60 degrees to -9 degrees in about a day. I figure when the cold snap is over I'll turn them off. Here's the pictures of her back it looks like beef jerky.

    is it bad to pet your chicken when they squat?

    I have a flock of 17 chickens. They all started running up to me and squatting all at once. My family and me thought it was funny cuz we could pet them. Will it cause them harm to pet them when they squat?
