Rooster is sick!!!

I do think it might be canker, you may want to get him checked out.

Yeah we're trying to but it's so hard cuz it's a walk-in and could take hours to get him seen.

here's a video of his breathing. Does canker cause breathing complications?

It could alot of his signs are canker signs

I would be so relieved if that's all that's wrong with him and not something viral.

Is it supposed to stink? There's a slight odor.

Sorry I really don’t know I think you will have to research that.

...He passed away in my arms last night.

I'm putting some eggs that hopefully are his in the incubator though to maybe get a couple chicks out of him.

 

[Lovem all]

I am so sorry for your loss. I hope he has a son.

I do too. He really was gorgeous. I don't believe I have any barred hen eggs so I should be able to tell which eggs are his vs. My EE and welsummer.

Maybe even a few eggs from yesterday couldn't hurt to try. How many can you incubate?
