Eye Injury to My Roo

[MyFlockIsMyLife]

@MyFlockIsMyLife How are your boys?

Doing a lot better. The one whose eye was injured is doing surprisingly well. His eye looks damn near normal now, but I know his vision isn’t 100% in it bc he still turns his head to see treats/food/me out of his good eye.

My older roo who has been separated in my backyard is doing well, too. He likes to come when I call his name, he’s been getting along with my dogs, and his feathers are starting to regrow thankfully.

Although I am sure you do not want to hear this, freezer camp is the right place to keep cockerels and roosters that cannot be rehomed and severely impair the wellbeing if the entire flock.

Pick the one the hens like best as they are the ones that have to live and deal with him on a daily basis.

Then dispatch the others or just give them away to people in need of a nice meal.

What is freezer camp?

That's such great news! I'm glad they're both doing well. How's your third roo? Did you find him a new home?

Great news, I am glad that they are recovering.

They have a good life and are butchered at night while still half asleep. No stress or fear whatsoever.
