    Do I intervene further?

    I woke up this morning and found one of my chicks half out of the shell and dead, it looks like its head got stuck and it suffocated. I hate when they get that far and don't make it, so I decided to intervene. After two pecked an opening and got no farther and the peeps got fainter I started...

    This mouring my wife, daughter and myself went out to check the grils and noticed that our Americana (sp?) rooster seems to spend a lot of time walking on his lower leg.
