I took in a rooster rescue and it became my big alpha male (only had a silkie roo before) and lately i see more hens sleeping on the nesting boxes and the other night i put them back on the pole and he immedieately pecked the hell out of one (who also has her back feathers missing so she's being bullies). I quickly bopped him on the head and held his head down like you're supposedly being the alpha. then he did it a few more times right away. what the hell? he's not aggressive other than the usual peck i'd expect from a rooster to a young pullet or hen being rowdy. i told the person who i rescued it from that if he causes problems he's becoming dinner.
