Broody Hatched feral chix

[Compost King]

If I had the space and right set up I would discourage roosters from coming near people. For now I discourage people from going near my roosters. I am the only one allowed in the pens unless someone experienced with chickens is coming to buy some or pick up free roosters. When roosters attack, usually when I have my back to them, they come in kicking like they have 50 pounds behind them. No big deal to me but I do not want kids near my roosters unless its some kid thrives on farm life. Do those kids even exist now? I haven't seen many who do more than play with these silly phones I can't figure out.

The little girl on our farm has lived there since she was 4, routinely takes care of two groups of hens, helps with the sheep and is learning about the cows. I don’t plan on leaving her unattended near a roo, any more than I would let her handle our rams or bull (or even a broody mama cow!)
