Title: Chicken Illness
Post by: Le Coq on September 30, 2006, 07:53
Can any one tell me what is wrong with my rooster?
He is acting like he is drunk. Although he is eating and drinking well and is very interested in the hens, he has difficulty in keeping his balance and slowly sits back onto his legs then seems to wake up. He staggers about a bit.
I have not smelled anything untoward but he seems to have diorhea.
He is the less dominant of the two roosters that we have and sometimes has to 'leg it' from the other.
The chickens roam freely with the geese that we have.
He is isolated from the other birds.
Any ideas?
