    Raw all the way up the leg between the scales

    Hi, I noticed my rooster started limping three days ago. I thought bumble foot at first but when I was finally able to catch him I noticed just how raw and red his flesh is. No scabbing or open wounds but the redness/rawness is kind of alarming. I soaked his legs in an Epsom salt bath and he...

    Gander feeling amorous

    I have two Ganders (one Embdem and one Chinese cross). I got both my boys when they were a year old. They are not terribly social boys with people but they look after my chickens very well. Anyway, not sure how to explain but my Embdem "attacked" me today. He grabbed a hold of my arm. He wasn't...
