Does anyone have any ideas what would cause this.  He is fine every other way.  Been this way for going on 2 months.  Took him to the vet, nothing wrong with bones, no breaks or injuries, no parasites externally.  Treating with antibiotics and steroids.  I was wonder if too much calcium could be causing this problem.  Does anyone know symptoms of too much calcium.  I'm getting frustrated by just guessing.  Have tried vitamins. I'm going to wait and see what the antibiotics and steriods do for him.  Just want to know what symptoms are of too much calcium.  He is almost 1 yr old.  The only rooster with 17 hens.  ???

Well you would think it could be exhaustion, :nowink:   but as he is just a little cochin roo, he only has 3 bantams that he can "service'.  The others are large breed hens.  But a good assumption!!! :lol:

I think bantams can service large fowl as well, they are very prolific in that department  :D
