    Completely forgot to say that wound on his comb is a bit of a mystery. I thought he had always had a dark circle on both sides. Never weeping just a different colour. However Im wondering if I am wrong because during the time he could stand, one side appeared red and weepy and got bigger...

    Rooster can't stand up

    I was thinking this maybe a possibility others or he himself are pecking his feet. As he has only just started walking again its not too difficult to catch him, he still has a limp. I thought tomorrow I would bath his feet in Epsom salts and have a proper look for scaly feet. I cant get Nu...

    Rooster can't stand up

    Thank you for the reply EggSighted4Life. There is certainly a lot to consider. I live in rural France and the system here would seem to be somewhat different to yours. I visited my local vet but not with the rooster as they charge the equivalent to the cost of 4 new roosters to just look...
