My bantam rooster (about 9 months old) got sick about 2 days ago, it was very sudden the day before he was all fine. He is sleeping a lot, is really lethargic and wont eat much, his poo is also really dark green with creamy white part as well, his comb and wattles are really bright but i dont know what it could be, we called the vet and they basically said "we dont do chickens" please any ideas/treatments.
 
I'm sorry your dealing with your rooster feeling sick.
First give him a good once over body inspection.
Check him for mites and lice.
2nd: check his crop first thing in the morning to make sure it is flat/empty.
3rd: check his crop before roosting. It should be full.
4th: feed him some scrambled eggs and you can feed him the shell too. Also give him some Chick saver or Hydro hen electrolytes.
5th: check his feet too for any visible scores or scabs.
If he has a Full crop in the morning before he eats then you have a crop issue that you must take care of quickly. Does his mouth smell sour?
Does he bring up liquid stuff?
Check him all over throughly. No feather unturned.
Hope this helps ya.
Good luck, I hope you can figure it out. Me, I would not give him anymore aspirin.
