In the Brooder
I have a young rooster less then a year. He and 6 other chicks were purchased as chicks all at the same time and place and age. I ended up with 5 pullet and two roosters. 1, a maran, and the other an americana. They were placed with two hens about 1 and 1/2 years old. It is the Americana that is crazy and not for the ones he was brought home with but rather the 2 older hens. One will not come down off the top shelf just bellow the perch and the other I had to separate all together because she was loosing all her feather and skin was showing on her little shoulders. I was afraid he would do real damage.
