Hi all, I have a gorgeous Basque Roo that is about 21 weeks old. He is in an enclosed coop/run with 4 girls, about the same ages. I have had them all since they were a week old and hand raised them. Up until about a week ago, I would hang out with them in the coop/run and they would roost on me, sit on my shoulder, eat out of my hand, I could pick them up, etc. Including the Roo. Suddenly, almost over night, he is now aggresively launching himself at me! I have gotten 3 bloody pecks from him in as many days! I can't go in the run without him stalking me and jumping at me with his talons extended, like he is in a cock fight!! I have seen him peck at the girls, but I just assumed that was normal for his age... No injuries to the girls, so far, but I don't know what to do to get him to stop attacking me, and I certainly don't want him to hurt the girls. None of the girls have started laying, yet, I am hoping soon... Could he be getting protective of them because of that? I hate to have to get rid of him, they are all like pets, but I can't have an aggressive roo in a confined space that I can't go in now! Any advise??? (and please don't suggest I have him for dinner.... I simply could NOT do that!)
