    Injured rooster toe

    Hi! My rooster injured his toe about two weeks ago, not sure how he did it but I’m guessing it was hardware cloth that cut it. I’ve been wrapping it daily, rinsing with hydrogen peroxide, drying then spraying a healing aid for chickens on it. It now looks like this and I’m not sure if this is...

    What to do if I got a rooster instead of a pullet

    Of the 8 chicks we picked up, 2 of them are Rustic Rocks. I was told these are one of the easiest to tell if they are male or female when hatched, like a 2% possibility of being incorrect. I'm 90% sure one of them is a cockerel (5 weeks old). What do we do if it is and do not want it waking all...
