Neighbor's Roosters are trying to kill my Rooster :(

It's a good thing it all worked out well. For a good cookout it would take 4 of those game rooster to feed two folks.

That's a lot of killing and cleaning.
 
Sounds like he is raising games. He should tether them in his own yard. I would suggest a fence with chicken wire around it, so his cannot peck yours.

You can't control his actions- outside of your area of control. And you will only influence his actions if you continue to be nice. Just remember anything you can do to his chickens, he can do to yours. I would try my best to solve peaceably and neighborly. And the solution may have to come 100% from you even though it's his roosters causing the trouble.

Well this post was a day late and a dollar short! That's what I get for not reading all the way to the bottom. Glad everything worked out so well!

Description of situation is not consistent with games nor is ID of roaming roosters not confirmed as such.
 
If your hens are being attacked, you can legally shot them. Then call the Sheriff to take care of it from there.
We had to call and get them to come out to tell us what we could legally do. If they are just in the yard, no hurting them, but if they attack our fowl or us, we can shoot them. Just take care to shoot low due to nearby homes.
Four jumped our hen, and were out for blood, and two more coming. Hubby had a hard time getting them off and out of our yard. So we called and asked for a patrol car to come, and them tell us what we can or can't do. He said if we have to shoot and kill, to call them, and they would take care of it to keep us out of it.
Roosters are running free, roosting in trees, and are over here every morning wanting to get to our hens, crowing at the bed room window. We can't do a thing about that. We don't know which neighbor they belong to.
