    9 month Rooster is showing signs of aggression

    Hi all! My 9 month old rooster is showing signs of aggression towards me. It’ll be sudden or when I have my back turned. He has 6 ladies that he’s a total gentleman for. I have more younger chicks in the nursery still and aren’t ready to be introduced. He is a Rhode Island/ Buff Orpington mix...

    What about butchering extra roosters for others?

    There is a real need for surplus rooster butchering in my area. The city limits allow hens and I was thinking about offering to butcher unwanted roosters for those who ended up with roosters from their spring chicks. I'm in the county and breed my own so I also have some extras so I'd be doing...

    Male or female?

    Hello!! We have been raising these chicks and they are now a few months old. I am very new to chickens and our two golden ones got bullied and had to be removed into a different coop a while back. Now wondering if our one coop is all roosters and the two are girls? Could someone help? Thank you!

    Two Roos to Fight?

    Hello! I have two confirmed roosters in a flock of 31 five-week-old birds. I was told that two roosters will fight until they kill each other so you needed one or three, is this true? Would the size of the flock make it okay to keep two? The flock will be housed in a large coop with a large run...
