If you don't have another Roo to replace him with then you might want to build him a
hold, breeding or what ever coop to keep him in that is if you are trying to collect fertile
egg's for the incubator ........ It is so funny one month some years back I had over
30 Roosters in the yard then off to freezer camp and a couple of months later a mass
amount of noise and a Bob Cat had gotten in the coop and got my last two Roosters
of my EE chickens it was hard to replace the roo .........

Ain't that just the luck! lol Yeah, not having an Aussie replacement and needing to fatten him up kept him out of the freezer. He sure has had a change of attitude since I put him in the roo pen. He is in there with six roos of other breeds. They gave him an attitude adjustment and now all is quiet. But I do need a couple breeding pens.

Oh don't I know it and it is time and money and the work but in the end it is very
much worth it for many reasons ........
 
Hi all,

Quick update. "Russell Crow took a one way ticket to Freezer City. He did another attack on me 3 days ago. Three strikes you're out.

End of story. I'm grateful for the education, not only from him, and my flock, but from all of your input. Rehab doesn't work. It's just in the genes. Unfortunate.

Thanks again..... Another day.............

I agree. It gives me a little bit of a sense of accomplishment to grow some of of my own food - just like hunting does.
 
Hey Trip Will,

I appreciate your input as you seem to be extremely experienced with this, but not only that, you saw the humor in it as well. I appreciate it. My brother said I should have video'd it. But it is what it is. Thanks. I've learned a lot. And if you can't learn and get a laugh out of a bad situation, what's the point. My flock is happy and I'm getting a dozen eggs a day. My roos are happy and all getting along. Thanks again.

Katy

You're welcome. I'm glad you got your problem solved before somebody got seriously hurt. I agree, you have just got to see the humor in life. I guess I laugh at myself as much or more than I do anything. LOL Picture this... I have these sleep pants, purple with big yellow Tweety Birds all over them. I wore them out to feed one day and while I was bent over getting eggs that roo got me right in the hind end! I thought, " Ohhh no you didn't!!!" LOL But you have to laugh, the big roo was trying to run Tweety Bird out of his coop! hahaha

We had chickens when I was a kid but I actually just got back into keeping them right at a year ago - so I am really just learning too. I am so thankful that I have met some really good and highly experienced "chicken folks" on this website. We all talk daily over on the "Fermented Feed for Meat Birds" thread and the "Front Porch Swing" (Family Life section) thread. You are welcome to come join us. :) We have a lot of fun and learn a lot too. Take care!
 
Oh yes hunting something I did a lot of when I was young and something
I had to do to feed the family but now I feed my boys from what we raise
in the yard for the consumption of the house hold ............
It just isn't as easy to go hunting as it was 40 years ago .........
