Lately the rooster has been pecking at her and kinda scaring her. But today the rooster full on attacked the hen. He only made one mark and it went thought the skin. when I give them food or treats they both go for it and then the rooster will pick up its head from eating and the hen will run away because she thinks he is going to peck at her. Plus usually the hen will run away and the rooster won't mind and go back to what he was doing but after the incident the next day the hen has been running a lot more because she's scared and the rooster is actully running after her. He doesent really hurt her when he runs after her but she gets really tease and her neck feathers get high and everything. Ahe also makes this differnt sound when hes rinnign after her. The first picture is the mark left from the rooster on the hen. It is under the right wing. The second picture is the hen. The third picture is the rooster. Please help I will do anything. My last option isngetting did of the rooster but if that's what it takes to keep my hen safe I will.

I wrote about this happening to my hen just a couple weeks ago. Then last week someone else wrote in. It seems to be the season for roosters to take a dislike to a certain hen. In my case the two are now separated as he turned the back of her head into something that looked like hamburger. Have someone coming today to catch the rooster and make him into dumplings. I like the hen way more than I like the rooster. The rooster is a polish cross. His dad became dumplings when he became people aggressive.

Did notice that both hens were alpha hens before this all started.
