So here I was bragging that I'm a changed woman. I think I spoke to early....
I went out to do my morning ritual of feeding the animals and saying good morning to them when I noticed one of the young black roosters lying on the ground. He was wet from dew and was breathing, but only just. I'm not sure what happened to him, I don't think this was either of the ones that were fighting yesterday as he has no marks on his crown.
He ended up standing so I've walked him into the chicken pen and now he's on the ground in there. I think maybe something bit him last night. I heard chicken noises last night about 6pm and while I went out to have a look I couldn't find him. I'm going to get someone else to check him out as that stuff (injuries) freak me out.
I was thinking about doing a WIRES (I'm not sure of what it means, wildlife rescue is probably some of them) course. But then I realised I'm not good with blood and injury on animals.
Its kind of strange though, we tried to kill two roosters yesterday and failed and one has nearly died of 'natural' courses. By natural I mean not us.
