love sick tom's

[geepy]

I have 2 hen's and 2 tom's. Both of my hens went broody. Now I have 2 love sick toms. I'm not sure what to do with them.

I guess they will just have to get over it.

Cold shower maybe?

Blow up Thanksgiving turkey decoration?

Ummmm....I'm really at a loss.

Good luck!

I'll try the cold shower.

Will the toms really mind? Ours can reproduce and all but usually the toms spend all day strutting up and showing off to other toms.

Since the hens are setting the toms really have no one to show off for. They look kinda sad, dancing around each other.

Isn't that how toms always look? My Bourbon Red girls are very active and sometimes run all over our property but the toms, like I said, stare at each other all day and only occasionally attempt to procreate. I imagine it would be quite easy for them to starve to death since they are puffed up so often.
