Companihens chickens

I once had a rooster who was almost identical to your Percy. I would have been grateful if Pauly NEVER came up to the house. Although gorgeous, he was a tiny bundle of feathered fury who delighted in attacking me as well as all other humans in his sight.

Pauly was rehomed to my then-vet's rooster flock, and we all lived happily ever after.

I can well imagine. Percy was like this for a bit and I only went in the run with a stick or something to make sure he'd keep himself to himself. He stopped going for me ages ago and seems to always accept me around now. But he's always gone for my 2 boys... I'm trying to teach Percy to share the garden with them and the boys to learn that they must not go near him or the hens. I'm hoping we can reach a truce and everyone can share the garden but we haven't yet got there yet. He's flighty when he's angry and reaches their faces easily so we have to take care.
Armand has never fought anyone, he intrigues me, he is still young 7 months ish I think.
 
I won't be surprised if some folks tell you to get rid of Percy because he is a potential danger to your boys. But, not me. I am completely fine with teaching youngsters to have a healthy respect for and keep their distance from animals or other dangerous things. The world is full of dangerous things!
