Depends on where you live, have a registered breeding facility or not, the regular backyard breeder doesn't have to go by laws like many of us do. However I would say 30 days at the least.

When you get a new rooster I would advise that you keep it separate for at the least 15 days. You do not want to be spreading around diseases in your flock. Not really sure why you keep adding roosters in so quickly. When you buy a new one there should be quarantine in there. You need to keep it...

But its eating and drinking fine I guess you didn't read that part.

Since molasses is made from brown sugar can't you mix a bit of brown sugar in water??? I know it's not exactly the same thing but still it may work. I always have molasses around where I make cookies with it, and baked beans.

Give him a few days, and keep an eye on him. He may start getting better.

Normally as long as they are eating it means the issue is something other then the Mareks, however I saw someone post the other day that they can all of a sudden go from near death with that to eating and being fine???? But if he is eating and drinking then he most likely has a sprain or...

Have you touched his leg??? If he is in that much pain it could even be a break. Look for the hot area in his leg and find out where it is.

His leg could be in a lot of pain. That could be why his leg is shaking like that. Little man shook all over for the first week, then he stopped doing it. However I knew it was due to the pain and the vet said the same thing when he went to touch his leg and he started to shake.

Give him chicken feed rather then grass. If he has got a sprained leg like little man had then he will keep himself going. make sure he doesn't have to stand up to get to the water. I used a chick waterer for little man feel his legs and look for hot spots. If it's hot any place either its a...

Lately I don't have time for anything that gets sick. We put down a hen last week that had internal hatching. As much as we loved her we figured it was best to cull her and bury here rather then see her suffer. When I have one that comes down sick though with anything including a bad cold, they...
