Urgent! Rooster!

I'm praying for you!if it is a tumor, I hope he survives. It would be tough to lose him.

Aww, poor guy. I’m sorry. I hope you get the answer you want tomorrow.

so we never got the call from the vet for the fecal results so if they dont call tomorrow then i will call them. Our poor girls are so confused on what to do without a rooster. hes been inside in a tote with a heat lamp on overnight which he seems to enjoy and has been getting care all day everyday si its quite exhausting lol. i just hope that i didnt spend $300 on a rooster who is going to make it

So i called the vet and told them what was going on with our roo and asked about the fecal test. he has Coccidia parasites so we are going to treat our girls to be safe. sadly the vet thinks (practically knows) that he has a tumor and he is not confident that a surgery will help. We are going to have to euthanize him because i've been in here with him for the last hour and i know he's suffering and in pain. i didn't want to let him go without seeing his girls so do you guys think it would be safe to let him outside for a day?

Thanks,
Laura

and if he were to go outside the girls would already be on meds for the Coccidia

You will be in my prayer tonight.

That is so sad. I am so sorry. My heart hurts for you and your rooster... I'm glad you were able to give him a good life and enjoy your time with him.
I wish i knew more about coccidia. I would want to do the same thing and give him one more day with the ladies.
Oh, gosh. I'm tearing up...

Im sorry for your roo! But no, I wouldn't let him with the girls. Whether they are on meds or not.

so i was going to schedule an appointment to euthanize him yesterday at the vet as he seemed awful but when i called they said to give him Corid and keep going on the meds and if you can to try and pull out that abscess. so i got the abscess out and he starting pooping and feeling better, i also got the corid yesterday. today he seems a bit more like himself so i'm going to wait until his meds are gone and go from there. i'm trying to keep my hopes high and be positive but the vet still thinks its a cancerous tumor.
