Hi, I am new to the forum. We have 6 Chickens, australope, rode island red and a rooster (australope). They are great fun have a decent chicken run and are very friendly (and always eating). Silky is my favourite. She will come in to my workshop to see what I am doing and sit and watch. Cracks me up - oh, pardon the pun! Anyway, poor Silky developed canker. She’s on antibotics and my son and I performed open beak surgery to remove a lot of the infection and soak is in iodine. I hope she can recover...poor we thing. Ok. Thats out little story.
