I NEED 2 B FRIENDS WITH MY ROOSTER!! - Page 5

X2

i beenhaving issues with my nice roo and being a pure cream legbar i have to keep him

he would cluck and try attck me when i went to collect egg

and i noticed one thing he would always crow constantly when i was in his pressence

well i decided i needed to put him in his place

i followed the advice on this forum and did all my chores with him under my left arm holding his legs aswell

he did a few times try to get away but i controlled him showin ghim he aint going anywhere

i even collected eggs and decided to clean the coop whilest he was with me

then i decided to do a extra test. i opened the run door and sat him on the floor out sede the run next to open door

i held him down and slowly lifted my hand away

he stayed didnt move he even hend his head in the ground showing submission

i let him run into the run eventually and he stood there, he didnt even crow till i left

then half hour later i went into the run and he shot liek a bullet when straight into the coop rather than attack

i then went into teh coop to see what he would do and he ran into a nest box to hide

so basically i have aserted myself to him

i am top Cock

i wont do this again tmoz unless he needs it

i dont want him getting so scared that he stops completly

i say job well done

i dunnno how long it was as i wasnt clock watching but i did loads so would estimate around 45 mins or so

he will need the same treatment again as he seems to be regressing but still not as bad as before
