Show off your roosters

Here is my birchen maran. Not sure how old he was given to me but I believe I heard him say over 2 years old
 
400
he isn't really photogenic at the moment I just penned him up about a week ago he's been free ranging since hatched his mother raised him until he was 3 weeks old with 9 others I sold the others and kept him and his brother and his brother got killed by a dog a few weeks ago.

Hey everyone here goes my smallest cockerel I believe. I had one question if anyone could help me. He seems to be lazy or something with his legs. Doesn't walk much looks like he wobbles to walk. He never walked out much are they too weak? He eats and drinks water fine.?
I had that problem with a game rooster came to find out he had scaly leg real bad after I treated it he just stood around doing nothing he'd eat and drink eventually I had to put him down due totrue fact that he couldn't walk at all and somehow had gone crippled couldn't stand the thought of him suffering have you tried giving him anything like supplements or ?

Supplements such as? He gets up comes out of the coop gets up here and there hut lays most of the day. He eats fine drinks fine. When I pick him up and put him in the yard he runs and flaps fine. Idk

Electrolytes stuff like that if he's doing stuff like that then there's probably nothing wrong with him maybe he's a couch potato if he's acting normal then I wouldnt worry to much about it! I have 4 chicks out of my last bat h that I'm going to keep and when I let them out they run around and flap there wings and chase each other then they lay around and rest for a bit.
 
Do you mean silver duckwing old English game? Because I don't think there's a such thing as silver duckwing American game.



Sure there is.....it's just the APA definition of color....I usually call them Greys :) Good birds.... I've had them a long time. The top pic has toppy blood in him but the bottom pic is a straight one

The OEs have white legs.....

Well he doesn't do it alone. Like he comes down to eat a little and then just lays down. He doesnt walk around unless i make him. But doesn't last long. I'll put him in the yarid sometimes sits right down unless he sees another chicken then runs and flaps to them. Then sits down.. ive wondered Does smart water work since it sais has electrolytes but what other stuff could work? Thanks for replying
