Subreddit rule question
Welcome, fellow chicken enthusiasts (and maybe those still chickening out a little)! You're wondering if your brand new chicken forum is welcome here – a cluck-tastic question! We understand you're having trouble reaching the moderators, so we’re addressing it directly. Generally, promoting external forums is a bit of fowl play, but we appreciate the enthusiasm. Please review the subreddit’s existing rules (often found in the sidebar or “About” section) regarding self-promotion. If the rules permit limited promotion, proceed cautiously. For a deeper dive into flock favorites, check out our recent article, "How often do y'all give fruit to your flock?" We hope your forum takes flight!
Half of my rooster is missing 😆
## The Great Rooster Tail Mystery Returns! 😆 Every year, it happens. Our community knows the drill: the annual "Where's the Other Half of My Rooster?" post is back! 😅 /u/sopeandfriends has once again captured the fleeting, goofy glory of a rooster mid-molt, dramatically missing a significant portion of his tail feathers. It's a cluck-tastic sight! This sudden, complete tail loss is perfectly normal – just a testament to the cyclical wonders of chicken life. While it might look like abandonment, these feathered friends are simply shedding their old plumage for something new and egg-citing. For more on the surprising realities of rooster behavior, check out our article "Rooster abandonment." Prepare for a laugh (and maybe a little chicken empathy!)
