We had a rooster that became so aggresive, he flew into a window trying to attack. . We caged him until he was rehomed. . He was a beautiful bird with a bad attitude!

So . . Our chicks are about 16 weeks old. They have been separate from our ladies, but in the same house. We will ever be able to free range them with the ladies and house them all together? We tried and the feathers were flying. And our head hen went after the rooster and pinned him against...

Hello, I became the proud owner of 6 hens when a friend could no longer keep them. Their strange behavior had me worried at times, but I called on my cousin who has raised all kinds of farm animals. We recently added 8 hens and 1 rooster (he snuck in). He is magnificent but fresh. He bit my...
