    Aggressive Rooster Help Please

    My rooster is aggressive with both. Our last remaining hen has big wounds under her wings and her comb was ragged. She would run from the Roo and twice was gone for 3 days ( we live in the country). Last time she came home she went straight to my daughter and looked weak, wet and bedraggled. We...
