New chicken lady

[Tresrn]

Hey all, I am new to raising chickens, I started out with 5 chicks, and now have 4 hens and a polish rooster!!! I didn’t want a rooster but went through so much to keep him, he had spradle leg so we braced him and nurtured him to get him
Strong so I can’t get rid of him... I am learning a lot from a friend who had a farm but I like that there is other places to find out information.. Thank you

Welcome to Backyard Chickens, the place for fun, friendship and facts about Chickens.

The "Emergencies, diseases, injuries, cure," thread is a great place to ask about medical problems.

Hi, glad to hear things worked out well for your rooster. It would be fun to see a picture of him (and the rest of your flock) if you would care to share.

Make yourself at home here!

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I'm glad that your rooster made a recovery and that you want to keep him. Are roosters allowed where you are?
