Ohh that's a bummer

you could have sold them roos, people has been asking for roos to eat.

If my BR roo attacks me again, he may be coming with me, someone could trade me a hen/pullet for him and eat him. He's so big and pretty but I don't like getting attacked! Yes, I've tried carrying him around, holding his comb down and giving him a little shake, I've also tried fighting back which made it worse. He attacked my daughter last Friday (she's 18) and scratched her legs up. For now, I'll keep trying cuz I like him for protection of the girls.

Wow he's pretty, but a mean roo has no place at my place.
if you do bring him I hope it goes with some one that wants a really nice BR to breed him.

I used to have a roo like that & used used to love to chase my grandkids around even though they teased him like crazy.I told them if he attacks you don't come crying to me.But in the long run your rooster is only protecting his ladies & only warning you and everyone else to stay awy from him or his ladies.Since then a coon got him.But he was a big beautiful bird.

Yay, someone responded to my Craigslist ad and Pudge the rooster is off to his new home!!

Girls still not laying. Only 1 egg a day the last 4 days, but surprize, the 1 egg today was from a Blalck Copper Marans. It small, dark and speckled.

YAY!!!!

Are you sure they're not eating them? I think you said you had an issue with that. If you have a chicken who gets a taste for their eggs.... well then you better just eat that chicken right now.

I am beginning to think all my chickens are molting at same time, that is why no eggs. John is planning on putting at least 1 in the freezer this week.

I don't think there will be an end to his bad behavior. Seems to be a genetic trait that only gets worse. Wish I could get you one of mine. They are from really good heritage stock, and all have been very non human aggressive. ...........stan
