if i do fences i plan on surrounding the fence with like a bamboo cover thing i have and they aren’t able to see each other, as for the top i plan on covering it with something since i sometimes see big birds circling around my house & it’s pretty easy to lift crickets- the tiny rooster + the...
im gonna build them those dome pens, make it spacey for a rooster, maybe i’ll think about getting them a hen so they won’t be too lonely but i wouldn’t want the hens to get over mated so i’ll have to look into that. I was thinking about designated days for when each of them can go out and roam...
oh that’s unfortunate :(
edit: wouldn’t he have died instantly? just wondering, i didn’t think a chicken with a broken neck would’ve lived this long, again i’m just wondering.
Everyone’s ears are different but it feels like the edges of your ear, it’s kinda weird to explain but not the soft squishy parts but the parts where there’s cartilage...?
I really hope there’s some last minute improvement atleast, but again i’m doubtful.
It’s definitely difficult i love my pets, but as hard as it is i know he won’t have to suffer anymore.
As for my other cockerels im not sure how i’ll build them their pens, i definitely want them to have enough...
He still has a couple weeks, i doubt he’ll walk but for now i’m making him as comfortable as i can until his swelling fully goes down, then i’ll try some massages like @LaFleche mentioned, i wish i could get him some x-rays for his neck to see if something is for sure dislocated but that’s not...
he’s usually on his right side most of the day, his leg is kinda angled to the left and his tail points to the left as well, it’s probably because he’s always been on his side. Should i try flipping him over to give his side a break? he freaks out but i’m not sure if this is because he’s not...
yeah no i’m not able to, no matter which way i part it all you’re able to see it feathers, it does hurt him when i touch the area, he freaks and tries to move away @RoostersAreAwesome :/
the part that seems to be a little off isn’t really visible, i parted the feathers and all you could see is his skin and all of his feathers, i’m also not 100% percent sure due to the way his neck is twisted, but i checked the other cockerels and the area is different from garbanzo so that might...
im in between austin and san marcos, a city named kyle :thumbsup i called about 10 and most of them said no they do not, another one said they can’t give me an estimate because it depends on how much they have to administer depending on weight.
Im feeling around his neck/ head *gently of course* and there’s like a spikey part where he was injured, could this be the bone that seems to be dislocated? he seems to hurt when i touch it.
I gave him a bit twice a day yesterday and he took a nice nap and was definitely more calm so i’m assuming he felt better, i didn’t give him any today since he’s just been chilling, he’s currently on the sling but he doesn’t like to be there long and starts wiggling around, coordination isn’t...
