I resolved the problem and don't see any similar problems in the future.
Had him for almost 5 years with his five hens, a very tight knit family. This happened about 3 weeks ago and the girls seem to be managing. They free range and are establishing new routines. My concern is they seem to be without direction. Im thinking a new fella might be in order. Cowboy was very patient with the hens and Im afraid bringing in a new guy to take care of them might be more than they really would be receptive to.
If I can find a mature Coochin I would introduce him to the girls. Not sure how the girls would take to him. Has anyone gone through the introducing of a Rooster to an established flock.
