I have 3 roosters. I would like to get down to 2 roosters, possibly 1. My head rooster and the guy who will stay (my avatar) is happy, outgoing, friendly, talkative. The other 2 were raised exactly the same. The low man on my totem pole is not friendly at all. I can't touch him, get close to him, the middle one is so so. I swear though the little one knows he is destined for the freezer.
How do you catch a bird who doesn't want to be caught without freaking the whole coop out? Do I just wait for dawn and get him while he is roosting? I can handle the rest of my birds fine while they are roosting but he still throws a fit. I'm tired of feeding him, he has no purpose in my flock.
Suggestions from those much wiser than I?
