I can see clearly now to ‘hair’ is gone!

It was just too dangerous for her, she tried to hop up on my arm and fell off! Of course I was more freaked out than she was - her didn’t see her trying to hop up on my arm till the last moment.
 
Sorry if I offended you. :oops:
Of course you didn't offend me, I am quite hard to offend, but a few posts back you were showcasing how the delete button worked.
I do, sadly, sometimes miss your pictures because I read the first version without a picture and miss that you then repost with a picture.

Only words that come to mind are:

Bert and Rosario are definitely going. I cannot risk poor Mr P; Bert is younger stronger and faster I don’t want him hurting Mr P.

I don’t need or want Rosario, it’s just too bad he is a Roo, and it’s making me miserable thinking that he will need to go. But the fact remains that I do not need or want another Roo.

Until Clyde actually crows I won’t do anything with her/him. While I would love to have a silkie Roo, after having dealt with Teddy and how ferocious he was I just don’t want a Roo like that. Clyde is already very ‘familiar’ and habituated to people, if he’s a Roo then they feel that will enable him to be an aggressive boy who isn’t afraid to attack me or others. Same thought with Mr LC, but he is small enough I can lock him away!

Oh I won’t really lock them away, but the fact remains if I have a bunch of Roos here they cannot all be running together, that’s a recipe for disaster.

Someone will always end up being locked away. 😢😢😢
Honestly, @Ponypoor , you have enough hens and space that you should be able to have at least 2 roos for the big girls. The teens need to get through the hormonal idiot stage, and then they will settle down. While you may not like it, it may well be that Mr. P becomes second in command. After all, he has a very docile temperment and was low rooster where he came from...so there may well be some jostling for position, and once it is settled, I bet Mr. P and Bert could get along quite well.....and 'co-rooster' your flock. And, like I said, it may well mean that Mr. P would be 'second roo', which is not at all a bad thing. He has his girls, Bert will have his (seems he essentially already does), but they can share 'look-out duties' and such - which is a GOOD thing - it is way too many girls for one roo to watch and care for - the stress could easily shorten his life.

@rural mouse & @RebeccaBoyd & @BY Bob thoughts on this?

And Mr & Mrs LC...they can stay - Mr. LC will just fly up and away from the other 2 boys. The big girls can thump him if he encroaches, and he has a Mrs. LC for company and noogies.
