If a Rooster is being mean to your hens get RID of him. No ladies deserved to be bullied. :) some of them are just MEAN. I just got rehomed a RIR. He was vicious and made their living conditions not nice. Bye bye. I am enjoying not having to defend myself when around caring for my chickens and...

My Rooster continued to be terribly aggressive to everyone and everything. He is no longer here. No buddy hurts my Helen!

She needs to be removed in my opinion. My last Rooster killed 2 hens by holding them down on the ground and spurring them to death. Good luck, I'm wondering why we want Roosters, I like the crowing and beauty of them but I'm not sure all the crazy attacking is worth it, :)

My Rooster is still not crowing. He is growing tail feathers and making weird sounds. (different then the hens). I have grown to like him and we seem to get along. I have had him for a month and a half. His spur buds have widened and he is getting colorful tail feathers and neck mane. :)

Thank you chicken enthusiasts! I love this forum! :)

I rescued what they said was a Roo. He is still not crowing and I can't see much spur growth. He is very attack oriented though he doest hang out with the mean ladies as of yet. He doesn't attack them in fact other way around but he attacks me. After attacking my little dog I ran out fearlessly...

If you google spurs on a rooster, it will show you where to look. :)

Please read over typos. I will proof read from now on.

My young rooster attacked my little dog. She just laid down. I was in stocking feet and I ran over and kicked him. He does seem scared of me and didn't try to attack me. I thunk he may be lumping a little and I hope it wasn't me. I feel bad now but little lap dog is a family member like a child...

He comes all the way across the yard and stares at me like he wants to kill me. He grabbed tne towel I was using the other day and pulled it out of my hands. Maybe he will be happier when he matures and starts breeding? I don't know. :(

Well, I usually take a towel with me and throw it over him or a broomstick. I've tried acting tough and chasing him as well.

This little Rooster that I rescued attacks me every time. Today I had to run. He must have been held to much and now I can't go out in the backyard as I let them free range my 1/3 acre. I don't want to worry about it every time and will need to wear pants and shoes before going out in my...

I agree with that. I don't want to hug him, only picked him up to move him. I hope he learns to crow but if he's vicious I would rather find a gorgeous Rooster that we can live happy with. I have a huge spotted Sussex hen named Helen. She will let me pick her up and hug her. Lol she hardly ever...

Hi, hope I'm the right spot about Rooster. Rescued a young rooster. He isn't crowing yet and I did try introducing while asleep. Well, the last three days I haven't been able to get in in the enclosure as I free range during the day. I worry though he gets up high on my husbands tow truck boom...

Dear fellow chicken lovers, today my Rooster died. My husband buried him in his yard. It is terribly sad and I did everything I could for him. RIP VINNY Now if I can just quit crying as it doesn't help. :(

He drank a 1/4 bowl of milk, hoe he gets some nourishment. :)

Today I gave him milk, hoping he could absorb it easier. He used to let his ladies eat first, now he will peck them he seems so hungry. I give my chickens all the feed they want, they are not hungry. :) lay mash, mini pellets

I give my chickens good high protein stuff all the time, I've read that if you use a broad spectrum wormier that kills all of them they might die. Vinnys ladies are much bigger and only the Cuckoo Marin seems small and light. I love my little Red Silkie Roo, his name his Vinny and he used to be...

Still worried about my Roo. He is eating like crazy and seems so thin and ratty. He has runny stools mostly clear not much of anything. I've never wormed and he is over 4 years old. He isn't crowing either. I will try the lower spectrum wormer I guess unless people think DE will help. I have...
