I'm really worried about 1 of my hens she's very quiet and looks so fat all of a sudden she's keeping herself to herself a fried thought she might be waterlogged it's not that I've checked she's laying an egg daily so she isn't egg bound I just done know what else to look for

Hi

Fairy new to BYC and just found a UK thread. I live in Northern Ireland and got my first chickens back in March this year. I have had Quails and Turkeys in the past. Having started with four POL, I then got some day old chicks and now have some hatching eggs in the incubator. my POL and chicks now 11 weeks old are barred rocks x RIR. All doing well though although they were purchased as sexed females, I have two cockerels. wo I am seeking homes for although they are currently lovely lads I am now moving to Buff and Lavender Orpington's which if they hatch will probably have cockerels in them.

Anyhow are there any UK clubs around and any ideas what to do with two same hatch cockerals of 11 weeks old?

thanks Deb
