    My rooster hurt his beak and his toes

    As in his beak is not functional? He can still eat correct, as for the aspirin yes, give him some of that. Is the beak getting infected? That would be something to worry about.

    It looks to me that a part of his beak has been chipped off... Sadly that cannot heal, As for the cuts on his comb and feet give it time, those will eventually heal as well. Keep me updated.

    My rooster hurt his beak and his toes

    Broody hens question?

    Hello! Sadly there is no way to make a hen go broody. They simply just do it by themselves... I have a Sapphire hen who has gone broody, but she was about a year old.
