I got a rooster from a friend after my sweet girls were attacked by a hawk. All are fine! Apparently this rooster, Sig, has never been near chickens but was tossed out with the ducks. He is wild, but doesn’t have an ounce of mean in him at this point. He’s 5 months old. He doesn’t know how to roost. He doesn’t know that his new girls are HIS. He doesn’t know what “candy” is. He hides under a bush by himself all day. He is extremely fast, and afraid of me. When he walks, with every step he lifts his feet up to his chest. Will this little guy come to be a real rooster, or will he always be a fake duck? My plan is to start carrying him around every morning and night for about 10 or 20 minutes. I really don’t have any other ideas on what to do. I would so appreciate any suggestions! My first rooster was horrible to me and had to be removed. He also told my hens to hate me. I will not let that happen this time!
