He is worrying me, he is tidbitting with the gals and seems fine, I don’t think he is molting, and he is eating fine. He make purring and growling noises and the cluck cluck for tidbitting.

But he is quiet otherwise 😟 I am worried that he sees me as dominant bird and now won’t crow. I am going to try an experiment where I walk away from him if he walks near me. See if he actually is feeling submissive.

Also when he goes to bed tonight I will check him form lice or ticks - I don’t see them digging at themselves any more than usual…
I don't know - maybe I need to get a young cockerel for him to dominate and feel manly...
:(
 
My kiddies have all sorts of ‘stuff’ going on with their poop. I make note of it but unless they are acting off I just check again if I see them pooping.

Poop can change so much with things such as temperature, food they eat, stress from molting, being broody (we all know those smelly poopies).

For your photos they both look splendid 🥰

Try not to get tunnel vision and see things that may or may not be there. I am good at that with the horses, if they cough, roll, look tired I used to get all bent out of shape that they might be ill - my Vet finally told me to stop looking at them hahaha.
You're one of the decent animal owners, I'm sure your vet appreciates this :hugs
