Well, things were going pretty good with the roos up until this morning. The big one came after me for some reason. Even without spurs he managed to break skin and leave a big lump which will bruise, through my jeans! I grabbed the bugger and wrestled him to the ground, holding his head down...

Quote: No, it didn't bother mine one bit. You have to be careful not to squeeze too hard with the pliers and just twist gently. I sprayed Blue Kote on both of mine's spurs after they were removed. I use Blue Kote on my chickens a lot since it dyes the wound blue, the other chickens are not...

Dianne, Where did you find the info on how to remove the spurs??? I have a rooster that put a nice size hole in my leg and I want to remove his. Thanks! There are several videos on Youtube. This guy's video is pretty good, There are several methods, some involve cutting the spurs with dog...

Well, I had another discussion with my husband. I stressed once again how dangerous these roosters are and they are making my life miserable! He told me not to let them out of the coop as much! Some solution that is. How am I supposed to feed and water them? They are even more aggressive...

I did whack the little one the other day and he flipped over backward and flopped around, eyes rolling back in his head. I thought he was dead. A few minutes later I hear a miserable sounding crow and thought "who was that"? After a few more attempts, the little bugger regained his voice and...

Okay, I think I made a mistake. I got rid of my nice roosters and kept the mean ones!!! (One full-sized and one bantam) "Why???" you might ask... well, because my husband "likes" both of them. He felt bad for them. Because both of the aggressive roosters were lower on the totem pole and...
