rooster chasing hubby

Freezer camp time.  My one rule around here is: ignore me and I'll let you be, attack me and I'll eat you. 

If you had him for a year and he just started.... I would have hubby stalk Rocky in a intense manner then if Rocky doesnt back down have huby snatch ahim up and carry him around. If placed down and Rocky advances again then up he goes again. Hold him like a baby....upside down....like a purse...etc etc... While he does chores. If he continues to show his butt then rehime or soup may be the next place for him. I have converted may roos but i have time for it...i akso have many older roos that kerp the younger ones in their place. It is a roos nature to protect their girls.... You have to teach sime their boundries......

this is entirely off subject and i feel ridiculous for asking such a newb question...but what does the D in "DH" stand for? it's been driving me crazy, seeing DW, DH, DD etc etc...i know it's something wife, husband, daughter etc, i just feel like an idiot not being able to come up with what that D stands for.... apologies again .

Dear Husband, Dear Daughter, Dear Wife 
 

I'd say it's soup time...I have zero tolerance for animals that threaten humans - regardless of their size which is why I can't stand nasty little chihuahuas (only the mean ones). Ugh. 

ah ha! thank you kindly for humoring this poor naive fool

Does hubby run from him?

 

 

 

 

Chihuahuas or other small dogs that people often think are acting "mean" are actually insecure and fearful. The barking and snapping is a result. Lack of socialization, people holding their small dogs most of the time...lead to a dog with no confidence. Poor breeding contributes as well.

You're right Deanna - it's not the dogs fault - it IS the owners (or breeders sometimes). They're just doing what they know. 

 

I was wondering if DH runs from the roo too...if he does he should definitely be standing his ground. By running - if he is - he would be showing the roo that he is afraid and that the rooster is dominant and in charge. Growing up we had a rooster start doing this, unfortunately he got out of hand and had to...become soup when attempted to spur somebody badly - out of nowhere. It was weird because he hadn't shown any aggression and then just out of the blue he did. Something must have changed but we never figured out what it was.

If the rooster is truly nasty and doesn't take the "hint" or the discipline immediately, I dispatch them.  End of story.  I don't want that trait passed on and keeping a rooster around here only means one thing.  Breeding, and we don't breed jerky roosters.  Everyone finds their own way on this matter.
