Here are come pictures of him
Yes he is a Cornish Cross, no he was not suffering, he is not dead because he was to big. He had a healthy heart and VERY strong legs, he was never caged he was alway able to move around so that really helps if you hve Cornish Crosses, make sure they have LOTS of...
Just thought I would let everyone know I had General put down, the maggots came back really bad and I could not keep flies off him, even in a screen cage. His feathers were turning all black and I think they were gonna fall off.
Also thanks for your guys/girls help, if ever I have another sick...
General is doing great, he is crowing a lot lately and he now comes to food which he wasn't doing, and he walk with his head high and his stride is nice and long.
How do you think the neck wound is looking?
Hey, General is doing great, I woke up this morning and he was crowing (he has not done it since he has been sick) which made me relly happy.
I got a new picture of his neck please let me know what you think.
Here is before

I got him all cleaned up, and I have some oinment on his cut, I also have a really grosse picture of it, it looks like there are three things I am wondering if they are part of his neck or some kinda bug, there were also some black maggots .
My dad said it was infected (probably still is)...
Okay so I have been posting about my rooster who had botulism he is now SO much better, but I am at war with maggots, I bath him in warm water( he LOVES it), and I thought he was trying to drown himself yesterday as he kept putting his head under water (so I held it up fo him), but tonight I...
