We had a house sitter who had previously had chickens take care of them but don’t think he ever had a rooster. I think the rooster started showing a few signs of aggression toward him, pecking at his boots, etc.
Thanks for the welcome and help/suggestions so far. We actually did not know we had gotten a rooster when we bought the chicks (from a reputable breeder). We thought we had 8 hens and didn’t realize until a few months in. For a year and a half the rooster was never violent, never went after...
Hi! Our rooster has suddenly gone mean. Our chickens were hand raising from hatchlings by our kids including the rooster. Everyone would comment how kind he was. They are now 2 years old and in January we went out of town for two months. We came back and the rooster started flying at my kids...
