Rooster

[brookesherman20]

Can someone please help me out. I went outside today and my rooster was looking droopy. I don't know if he's sick or if he's been picked on because I have 3 other Americauna roosters. He is still eating and drinking water and I've separated him from the other roosters for the night, but I'm not sure what else to do. I need help!

I also forgot to mention he is about 4 months old!

Generally roosters can't be kept together - there will be fighting. A rooster can handle 10 hens, you would need 40 hens and probably to group them into 4 flocks to keep each of the roosters content. Or rehome a 2-3 roosters.

Hi and welcome to BYC - thanks for joining us. Separation is the best thing to do and keep an eye on him,cehilst following DDiva's advice.

Good luck
