    Hen or rooster?

    This 4 month old RIR may be a rooster, which may cause some problems for my neighbors. She/he made some sort of a noise this morning that sounded like a rooster, then the tail and the red wattle and comb kind of made sense. It is 4 months old. What do you all think?

    baby chick has hair caught in throat!

    Do you have an eye dropper? I would try massaging the crop. I sat with her for a while massaging the crop, and a dab of olive oil, but you have to be really careful with the oil so she doesn't aspirate.... Look into it. Our chick was fine by the following morning, she passed it.

    It was really amazing that she just cuddled right up to me, and let me massage her, she was clearly very upset because she is usually the crazy chick of the group. Well, I didn't even get to intoduce myself on the forum yet, and I needed you all, and you came through for me. Thank you kindly.

    baby chick has hair caught in throat!

    she barely took a half a drop of olive oil, I am going to keep trying. She did drink some, and had a little food, so I am hoping that she will poop it out. I cut a little off so she won't have the extra hair to swallow. Ultimately, I am worried, but will let you know what happens.
