    Pesky Rooster

    Hi there! I just started raising chickens. I built the coop 3 months ago and the chickens are in, but for the last week or so I've had 2 roosters from out of no where hanging around. This morning they were on my roof! I'm going to try shooting them with an air-soft gun that I'm borrowing...
