Chicken Saddles Question

[-Chanticleer-]

Maybe wet the saddle covers?

I would most definitley keep an eye on him with the other hens. I would leave the saddle on until her pin feathers start coming on. Is he an aggressive rooster all around?

Not at all, he is fine with me when I go in…I am the only human they really have interaction with. Like I said, he attempts to get jiggy ether the others, but they either aren’t quite mature enough just yet, or they don’t have any desire to be “the other woman”…just don’t have any interest. They are all the same age, and have been together since I got them in early March.

Oh, okay. I would keep a very close eye on him with the others. I'm not really sure how to stop really agressive behaviour in roosters towards certain hens. The only thing that I can think to do if it keeps up is to spray him with water every time he gets aggressive.

Thanks for taking the time to answer me.
