The neighbour's cat was whapping one of mine across her face this morning when I arrived to feed. I don't care for him as he's a bully, so I chased him off before feeding my crew (six, this morning).

Fourteen. SO far "he's" been quite lively.

[Lagie]

Hopefully 'he'll' stay that way!

 

fifteen grains of chicken feed, and good wishes

I wonder if he IS a he. I had two chicks fighting this afternoon and separated them. Makes me wonder if our patient is a defeated roo. Your wishes are doing good I think, he's been quite lively in spite of his horrible injury.

Hens fight, too. Just less often.

The way I used to determine if a chick was a hen or rooster was take my finger, 'peck and scratch' on the ground/floor, and imitate the sound of a chicken who'd found something to eat. The male chicks would come towards my finger immediately, the female chicks would hang back and watch.
