I have a question - for those who choose to bond with your chickens, what do you do when you have a rooster, who just refusess to let you get near him? I've raised him from a baby, and while my alpha roo, lets me carry him around, hold him, pat him, (with reservations, but he lets me do it.) thing #2, refuses to let me get near him and will pace in front of the chicken coop, and refuse to come out, if I'm sitting there, waiting for him.

Why does he hate me so much? He used to like us

If I've got a roo that doesn't like me, I respect his space and leave him be except for occasional louse and weight checks. I've prevented one, maybe two from turning bad that way... He was starting to posture when I came near him, so I completely dropped all contact for a few weeks. He's good now.
