I have a two year old RIR rooster who has started to become very ruff with my hens. Most of my hens are too scared to come down from the roosts because he has been so mean to them. He has also become very mean to my sweet one year old rooster. It's getting to the point where I can't stand having him around anymore. He's a very sweet rooster when it comes to people, and he has never attacked a person in his life. He has just gotten SO mean to my other birds.
What do you think I should do? I can't afford hen saddles for 22 hens. Do I cull him? This is a really hard decision for me, but I know I need to do what is best for my flock. Any advice would be great.
