Getting rid of the cockral.

[rjc2rjc]

Okay. We bought 10 pullets. So we thought. One turned out to be a coco muran. (Spell check). Anyway this thing is a demon spawn of Satan. He has attacked everyone that comes close to the run. He is plucking the feathers off the other hens... Now I know this may be normal behavior. But it doesn't fit with my family. So I have decided to get rid of him. My one concern is. Will it cause a problem with the hens to just take him out all of a sudden. I don't rellre know what I could do other than just take him out but wonder if I should expect the hens to be freaked out at first. Anyway thanks for your advice in advance.

That behavior is cause for immediate removal from the flock. The pullets/hens will adjust.

They will be relived if anything I would take him out at night they won’t be bothered at all that way.

Take him out sooner rather than later. Neither you nor the hens need to tolerate his behavior.

I have tried to break him of it by holding him after he attacks but it hasn't helped. I will see if I can find someone to take him . If not. Chicken and dumplings it is.

Rehoming an aggressive jerk, except with full disclosure, is a very bad idea. "Nasty roos taste best"! Eat him yourself, or send him off for another family's dinner, ASAP.
Meanwhile, life alone in a nice big dog crate, until dinner time!

IF you send him away do tell them he is for dinner!

Separate him asap.
The girls will be very happy.
How old are these birds?

That’s true I’ve sold roosters for soup , just get rid of him soon !

There are many nice roosters

You could get creative and rehome him as a vicious guard rooster. To people who don't have any other chickens. Nah... rooster and dumplings sounds good.
