Hi all,
I am a complete novice to chicken husbandry. I rescued a barred rock rooster that was roaming the neighborhood. It appears that he ran away from home because the other roosters were picking on him, ended up about 2 miles+ from where he started! Anyway, he is about 7 months old and a real sweetie, follows me everywhere, sits on my lap...Yeah, I'm spoiling him.
I do have a question for you all. He seems to be eating and drinking and acting just fine, looks healthy, clear eyes, alert...but, he is breathing through his mouth a lot and there is a clear discharge coming from his nostrils. Should I be concerned?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
