    Aggressive 20 week old rooster

    That was my thinking. I just wasn't sure if roosters could be "trained".

    Aggressive 20 week old rooster

    I absolutely agree. My kids were walking toward me calmly and he chased them. The kids don't chase the chickens. He went after hubby this morning(just found out).

    Aggressive 20 week old rooster

    I only meant the dogs are out there with less supervision than the kids, who are never out there alone with them.

    Aggressive 20 week old rooster

    Today our rooster chased after my 6 and 4 year old. Can roosters really be tamed? Right now the dogs and chickens get along but if he's willing to go after the kids I'm assuming he'd go after the dogs too. Just trying to decide if we're going to keep him. Edit: I obviously care more about the...

    Does this look like a maran egg?

    I've been trying to decide if my hen was a black sex link or a black copper maran. After posting pictures of my chicken everyone agreed it was a black sex link, but than three days ago she layed her first egg and today this one(picture below), and I wondered if I got a black copper maran...

    Flock And The Dog

    We have two dogs and both do okay with the chickens, but one likes to sniff bums too. The chickens hate it. If the dog stays more then a few moments they'll get pecked. I thinks it's normal and as long as that's all the conflict between them I'm happy. I never leave them alone together though.

    I have a 7 week old roo and unsure what to do.

    My true blue whiting is 7 weeks and a roo. We can't have roosters. Should I wait until he crows before I try and rehome him or is it easier to do when they are younger? Using him for meat could be an option but they aren't really meaty chickens and I'm not sure I could eat our little Cream Puff...

    Thank you for replying! It's good to hear about the EE. I was worried because her comb is so pink.

    Did I actually get an assortment?

    I ordered from Tractor Supply and was supposed to get 1/2 rare 1/2 standard. I got 7 sex links and 3 Easter Eggers. It looks like you got a lot of the same chicks too. Sorry.
