Hello everyone! New member from South Africa! :frow... I noticed that my rooster's crow sounded different 2 days ago... He is just shy of 7 months old so I assumed that maybe the sound of a rooster's crow would change at different points of their lives. This morning I noticed yellow pustules on...

A week ago during bellow-freezing temperatures I discovered both of our roosters had black scabs on their combs, so far none of the hens have had any but I’m very worried it might be fowl pox. If it is fowl pox, should I vaccinate the hens? Unfortunately one vaccine said that you should...
