    Freak accident/suffocation

    Just wanted to tell how my first chicken died yesterday and alert people to be extra cautious in every aspect of their yard to keep their birds safe.

    Lineage of this rooster

    I'm just kind of curious about the breed mix of this rooster. I got him from an Ameraucana/Easter Egger bin at the feed store with a few others. He had some barring when he was younger.
