BROODER BULLY

[CochinBrahmaLover]

so we have this OEGB cockeral who is just a BULLY! Ive witnessed him grab the neck feathers (or hed feathers) of other chicks, and pull on them, and they SCREAM! i picked him up by his legs and brought him to my lap as punishment, but i know its not gonna work. So what do i do?! hes only 5 weeks, 6 weeks on the 12th!

I think you need to get rid of him, there is really no other way, if he is being a bully then there should be no place for him in your coop

well we found some one to buy all our chicks we're selling (shes starting a hatchery, she bought 3 japanese bantams from us last year) but shes taking him as well, should I warn her to keep him seperated? He would most likely be used for breeding since shes starting a hatchery

Is this the one you got a little while ago, right?

 

[CochinBrahmaLover]

yes he came with our other chickens and just started doing this!

 

[Den in Penn]

Yeah. Give a heads up about his behavior.

 

[CochinBrahmaLover]

we have him outside the cage and hes grabbing what ever chickens come close and grabbing their poor feathers through the wire : (
