I have 2. 4 month old cockerels. 1 is alpha but Haven’t had any issues till this week. The alpha has been chasing the other away into the woods to were he hasn’t gone back to the coop at night. And when he comes out and the alpha sees him he chases him off again. Last night I had enough and locked the alpha in a dog crate in the garage. Am I doing the right thing? And how long should he stay there? 2- 3 days?
I also have 8. 1 year old hens and 16. 4 month old pullets. There is plenty of hens for the both of them however alpha has be grabbing all of them to mount, the pullets cry and scream and don’t know what to do. The hens get very mad and try to attack him most of the time.
Help I don’t know what to do. Also alpha is hand tame never tried to bite us he is very sweet to us. TIA
