M’y flock is now down to 3 hens and a rooster i used to have a male guinea who basically kept my rooster in check but a Fox got him a couple weeks ago. Holy personality change! The rooster now hops on whichever hen is closest whenever the mood strikes (a little too frequently if you ask me!) and he’s been starting to attempt to bully me...pecked at my hand when I attempted to get bedding out of their food bowl, flaps his wings at me, charges me, etc. Now I worry his sexual urgency is affecting the hens particularly my lace wing she’s got a bald spot on her back from where his feet grab her to do the deed. What can I do? Do I need to worry about her health? He hasn’t broken skin but it is quite red and raw looking.
