My "baby" Lucky died last week. I raised him from 1 day old, he would have been six years old this coming July. He contracted the dreaded Wet Avian Pox in December. His body took a beating but he was hanging in there. It was hard for him to eat and he lost a lot of weight. I was having him...

Lucky my rooster, finally became a Daddy after 4 years. Chick is about 2 weeks old now. I've heard there is a way to tell by the feathers if it will be a hen or a rooster. I've compared photos of chickens I have raised in the past. And I can't make any kind of connection. Photo enclosed...

I live in Fort Lauderdale now and my rooster, LUCKY, lives at an organic business. I visit him twice a day. I am looking to move out of Fort Lauderdale and am open to other areas of Florida. My income travels with me, hence I can uproot myself and move. I've rescued 3 roosters over the last...

I live in Fort Lauderdale and luckily my 3 roosters are at a business that has rescued animals so code enforcement does not bother with us. But I know they cannot live there forever and I am looking to move out of Fort Lauderdale to somewhere quieter that allows roosters. I really love my...

I'm tired of the rat race in Fort Lauderdale and want to take my roosters to a quieter, less populated area. The roosters live, right now, at a Farmer's Market which is a renovated nursery. There are lots of rescue animals there. The place has just gotten so noisy with a new dance studio...

Hi, I have 5 chickens that need a new home. They have been through some foster families already and need a permanent home. I can't find a place to list FREE chickens so I set up this dummy auction. The chickens are not laying eggs but I believe are of age to do so. It is crowded where they are...

Since one of my roos just died last week, I want to get my other roo examined. Can't go through that again, heartbreaking. Can I bring my other roosters to a vet for a physical of sorts? If so, what would it entail? I'm alittle affraid of the cost but it will be worth it knowing my Roo is...

Has anyone ever heard of this? My 3 roosters are at a Farm-type place. There are two other roosters nearby and apparently someone is complaining. I was told if I register them as show roosters, that is a reason to keep them there otherwise I guess they will be exiled. I live in Fort...

I will try to condense the saga. Lucky was rescued at birth and stayed in my house for 4 months. He is now 5 months old and living in a small area inside of a coop that contains my 8 month old rooster Buffy and 8 month old "crowing" hen, Mookie. Lucky was separated from them so they could...

I rescued him when his Mother got killed by a wild animal. He was the only one who hatched before she died. I named him "LUCKY". I love him, but it's time for him to have a new home and a nice place to run around. He's a bit wild, you can't pick him up but he does eat out of your hand. He...

I've read they are social and should not be alone. Also this chick will end up going to a free-range farm(though I really want to keep it), so would it be better if he had a playmate? Then they both would go to the farm together.

I want my rooster to meet my chick. The rooster is curious but I stop him at about 6" from the chick. Don't know if he wants to inspect or attack. Any thoughts? Sometimes when he hears the chick chirping for attention and also when the chick flaps its wings, the rooster lets out these weird...
