    This bird is all muscle anyway. :lol: He looks like he hit the weight room or something. Either or, he would probably be big enough to feed a family of five or more. The only thing is he may belong to the farm, so I'm not sure if he can be eaten or not. :barnie

    Thank you so much for sharing this article with me! The aggression part of the article was very helpful at explaining why Clux may be acting out. All of Clux's hens are following a different rooster now; he lost his dominance to another rooster named Bigmouth recently. His tail feathers are...

    I agree with you on this and I wanted to thank you for suggesting the better clothing. He is a very good and strong rooster. I don't think any predator would want to mess with him. The downside of this is Clux is on a public farm with little kids and only two people out of all the staff know how...

    Wow! :o Thank you all for your responses to this situation! I will definitely get some boots and better clothing to prevent further injuries. And yes, I'm pretty angry with this farm right now. It sickens me when the parents let their children chase the birds and expect that nothing will happen...

    I agree with you 100%! The only problem is I am a measly volunteer with no say-so. But it shouldn't be my job to shield little kids from that darn bird. Most of the parents don't do squat anyway and say, "Oh! He's fine!" or just sit on their phones and let the kids chase the birds. Meanwhile...

    My friend does not own the farm, he's just a worker. I really hope the owner can convince him to get rid of that bird on Tuesday. This is the third incident report we had to fill out because of Clux. My friend has raised poultry a lot longer than I have, but even I wouldn't keep a bird like that...

    No, they do not have the final say so and I've been providing pictures of my injured leg to the owner and letting them know all of the incidents where Clux attacked someone. This isn't the first time he attacked me. He also poked me under my eye one day because he thought I was a subordinate hen...

    Thank you for your replies to my post. Hopefully the manager of the farm can convince my friend to let Clux go. I really want everyone on that farm to feel safe and they are very fortunate that I won't sue them. This isn't the first time he has attacked me and he has gone after three other young...

    Rooster Gone Sour

    Hello. I'm new here. I work on a historic farm that is open to the public and help take care of 30+ chickens (we got some new babies and more on the way). One of the roosters, who my friend named Clux, has recently lost his dominance. Over the summer, he used to have a ton of hens following him...
