When I woke up I put Oz back in the coop and noticed my alpha pullet picking on her.
She's been in the neighborhood for a couple of years. I named her Dorothy since my rooster is Oz haha.
Oz started to pick on her too. Poor Dorothy would just squat down and take the pecks. Sometimes she would...
She is wild so only my rooster has interacted with her before. They actually like each other. The other hens are semi wild and are only 5 months old. They still have their wings so I don't let them out. My rooster is a house chicken but when I'm working he goes outside into the coop. I don't...

I got him to eat some of my sandwich and gave him pedialyte
This morning when I woke up and after Oz crowed some, he started to act strange. He wouldn't eat nor drink. He's quite lethargic now. Don't know what's wrong with him. I gave him a little bit of water with an eyedropper not too long ago. Also got some unflavored pedialyte for him but...
