I haven't been flogged, but tell me, How does one get HOLD of a rooster that one would LOVE to get rid of??? I mean this roo will charged at me while I am on the outside of the run, but when I come in, he runs under the coop.

I am NOT going to wait for him to flog me or my son, so he has to GOOOOOO NOWWWWW, but I have to find someone to take him or find a butcher. My hubby WON'T do it and to be frank I don't think I can. My dad would, but we can't catch him. Should I wait till he is roosting???

Why did he have to be the one to turn out mean? If he were doing his JOB I wouldn't mind so bad, but he is just a bully.

wait till he is roosting.. or borrow a smelt net from someone (really long handles and wide cloth mesh nets work good for catching errant chickens)

Yeah A good Ole common long handled fishing net is a handy tool to have around for this case.

The DH sounds like he needs a little lesson in doing his job as head rooster.................... I have a hard time respecting a Man who won't help his wife when she needs him to. and when her & their childs safety is invovled, Did the DH get caponized at one point.

Just to show you that you haven't ever seen a real chicken here you are, he is every bit as said, please be sure to take a good long look, and check out the itty bitty 3" spur's. Now I am very sure if this bird were to hit the back of your calf the words that would shortly be coming from your lip's would certainly be different from the love songs sung in your F00-Foo coop, and will resemble some very colorful medifores. These are what I raise and they are indeed very big solid non Hatchery Godzilla's.

This one is called the HULK for good reason, note the very small 3" calf cutters. One look into his eyes let's you know he ain't into cuddling and all that ooohy gooohy stuff, and he is one hell of a speciman.

Al that is one magnificent rooster, now that aint no wipe your butt with a foo foo chicken

I tried to tell everybody My deal only calls for more than just non physical action because of these Brutes, LOL I still wouldn't have any other breed although I have in the past. I have had Foo-Foo birds in the past, got a few for my wife hoping she would get into chickens, then the whole cutesey tootsy lovey dovey stuff started as it normaly does with women and she was pretty much worthless as a real chicken person after that, naming them and treating them like people. So I did the only thing any self respecting chicken guy would do when his DW goes over to the Foo-Foo chicken dark side, I sold them faster than Oprah eating at a buffet. Shoot I couldn't even invite my chicken friends over for fear they would see a silkie in the pen's and stare in disbelief and distain LOL then I would have to lie................ it was humiliating I tell Ya pure torture.
