My rooster is attacking me

I'll bet those burn..
carry a squirt bottle. and shoot him with water whenever he looks threatening..
it worked for me on a rooster and on a tom turkey.. after awhile all I had to do was carry the bottle with the handle hooked into my pocket to keep my hands free to do chores.
I sold the turkey and ate the rooster.
he tasted especially good..

Skip the squirt bottle and proceed to that part.
NO reason to keep him after drawing blood and having you shaken like that.

Sounds like he's a good candidate for freezer camp to me! That sounds absolutely terrifying!

I definitely agree with this.

FWIW my daughter has tried the squirt bottle idea on a few males that had a problem with her. All it did was to make them more aggressive.

Time for him to become Sunday dinner!

"Nasty roosters taste best!" Words to live by. He needs to go ASAP. Meanwhile, wear shoes and long pants, and carry a weapon, not a squirt bottle. Better yet, get him off the roost tonight, put him in a big dog crate, or something, and move him on tomorrow. Mary

Eat him. If you can't eat him for some reason right now, you can try what I do- I carry a fishing net with me and when/if he looks at me in that 'rooster way' I walk towards him with the net outstretched. If he gets out of order at all I scoop him up in the net to give him a scare. Only had to do it once- now he is scared to death of me and that net and runs out of the way when I come around. That being said, he will return to his bad roo ways at some point so I will be eating him as soon as I am ready to butcher him. I'd like to think that it will be when the weather is a bit cooler out, but in reality it will probably be the next time he gives me inappropriate (for me) attitude.
