Went to check on our coop for the night and our poor roo’s comb is scary!!!
There are 2 possibilities we are worrying
1. He likes to peck eggs and tries to get them before we collect them…could be dried egg? (It’s just a possibility)
2. Fighting with other roo, the other roo is far younger...

Our rooster is VERY vocal…
He’s a 4month old serama bantam, lately when he crows it sounds almost painful, and at the end of his crow it sounds like a voice crack…should we be worried? Is there something to do to help?
Wish I could post a video for reference…
Question(s)…
we have 2 8wk old seramas that were vaccinated for Merricks when they were just born from the farm we purchased them from. We are now getting 2 more seramas to add to our flock who are not vaccinated and a few weeks older. (Maybe 3-6?) Anything we should be worried for/look out...
That’s okay!!! Thank you for your input!! Yes the other 2 are doing fine, they were/are bigger than the one that passed. I know seramas are small but this one was very very petite.
The other two do have slight clicking noises when I held them to my ear.
Thank you for this! They have a mini “hut” that they run under from time to time. I’ve noticed them sleeping in there more. The temp is measured just under the lamp, they are in a fairly large bin that allows them plenty of space to move away from heat if needed.
We recently got our serama chicks last Thursday. We received 3 of them, all fine and well.
last night, after cleaning the brooder we noticed one of our chicks (the smallest one) was very sleepy, and lethargic. We assisted her to drinking water and she seemed to find the others to lay with...
One of them was pulling on his wing and running with his wing in his mouth…could be preening! I’m new to the chicken world so I will research that a little more. Thank you!
