Squirt bottle! Shoot him with water when you see him looking at you wrong. My chickens know the squirt bottle & will run from whatever they are up to when I pick it up. Garden hose works great too
I too have used this in the past - problem comes when either you don't have it with you or someone else is around the flock and they don't have it. I've used it more as a proactive training tool, rather than to fight off aggression. I agree, it will deter aggression, but not necessarily condition none-aggression. Dealing with a nutcase roo is no fun.
