Breakthrough!!! Think "Oil Gland".. I went to bed praying and thinking about that poor dry face skin..I woke up about 5 AM and thought HE CAN"T GET TO HIS OIL GLAND...
Got him out of his box, set him on the floor with his water and food..He started to pant a little..I started hunting through his feathers til I found his gland.. Set him up in my lap, touched the gland and started putting his own oil around his face and head..That rooster closed his eyes, stopped panting altogether, and LUXURIATED all over himself..I put him back down, he started eating..He'd already drank several times..I put him back on his pillow with the food and water and he promptly went to sleep, breathing through his nose and looking more peaceful than I have seen him in weeks..Glory Glory THAT is why his poor little face was so dry and flakey..He's not been able to groom properly since the back injury!
