Drives me a bit crazy, too.
He sort of puts up with it (But of course, they put up with him walking on their backs, lol)
He has scabs on his comb and wattles (due to frostbite and beating up a rooster we no longer have) and they keep getting pecked at and opened again and again.
He just shakes blue kote off himself (and i doubt that would stop them anyway), and unless I stuff his head in a SOCK, I don't think I can keep this from being a perpetual issue....
I COULD SEPARATE HIM, BUT HE LIKES TO BE WITH THE GIRLS.
But I am concerned about the wounds getting infected and him DYING as a result................
Any experience with this?
