Rooster Tail bone possibly broken?!!!!

[rooster239]

My roosters tail bone feels super lose and i think its broken he looks really weak and eats nothing and weights nothing he is super light and i think its his tail affecting all this ? !

How old is he ? Have you checked for mites or lice and has he been wormed. I would think it would be hard for the tail to be broken, but it may be and indicator of something else.

4 months and it feels pretty loose to me and his tail always hangs completely low like he haves no control too it

I think the tail is mainly muscle, gland and tissue not much bone to break.. The carry of the tail can be an indicator of how they feel.. How does his comb look in color? Do you have others that he is with?

From the previous Question, Have you checked for mites or lice and has he been wormed?

Maybe someone else will read and have some additional input.

I wish I had some advice. Is there any way you can fashion a splint of sorts to help him while he heals? If he's not eating or drinking are you syringe feeding and watering to keep him hydrated? I wish I knew more about what to do for the bone but I do know you should keep him hydrated. Perhaps someone who had expirenced this themselves can chime in and help. I'll I know is to keep him comfortable and make sure he gets some water and food with a syringe if he's not eating. I wish I could be of more help
