    HELP! ...something is wrong with my Rooster!

    Well, Im not exactly sure that I have figured it out entirely, but after a few hours of internet research, Gapeworms seem to make the most sense as far as what symptoms he is demonstrating.. messy droppings (as I had mentioned,) 'yawning' or 'gaping' which started two or so days ago, and has...

    HELP! ...something is wrong with my Rooster!

    Thank you all for the replies.. I am going to go pick up some Sevin dust tomorrow.. I use it on my peach trees, so I will be needing it soon anyhow. I hope he makes it through the night, as by the time I read all of the replies, it is well past dark. Hard to believe someone can have feelings...

    HELP! ...something is wrong with my Rooster!

    ..As far as his poop, I looked for fresh droppings but didn't see any.. Though I seen one or two dried out ones. That had no shape, and were a little yellow, like the color of mustard.

    HELP! ...something is wrong with my Rooster!

    Big Head, my prized Barred Plymouth Rock rooster, isn't well, and Im not sure what is wrong with him. I have tried googling symptoms, but nothing stands out as exactly correct, and moreover, the list of possible diseases/problems is overwhelming. That being said, it is impossible to treat his...
