Hi,
I have a 9 month old Serama rooster who is very skinny. He is also lethargic. I currently have him in my room with a heat lamp, because it is fairly cold. I gave him a mash of chicken food and water, and he ate almost all of it. His crop is very large now and I am pretty worried about that. Is that OK?
I noticed his condition at around 1:30, and I am pretty sure he was acting normal yesterday.
I am pretty sure he is like this because he was living with another rooster who picked on him a lot and probably kept him from getting much food. He might also have worms, but I am afraid to worm him now, as it might be tool much of a shock to his system.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Azteck.
