NY chicken lover!!!!

I have 4 chicks that are only 6 weeks old. I'm hoping at least one will be a rooster. I can handle one but 5 was a bit much. I'm assuming that's why they were so aggressive. Too many cocks and not enough hens.
So sorry ! it sounds like they ganged up on the little guy ...
Can you put the hen with the babies ? That may give her some comfort if she accepts them .
Roosters tend to get more aggressive as they come of age....4- 5 months ...most dont become mean ..they sometimes get confused where they are in the pecking order with humans.
Any baby roo that shows any aggressive tendencies toward a human should immediately be smacked ..or kicked or chased
My 3 little roos ( the 3 musketteers ) sometimes pecked the back of my leg when I am walking fast and they are behind me ..I turn around and chase them
I have also picked them up and tap tap tapped on their head ...and scolded them if they get aggressive when I give them food ...
Their manners have improved ..

Hi All,
I have several young cockerals that need new homes:
1- Splash EE
2- Lavender EE's
several Black EE's
1- Barred EE
These cockerals are from my pure Ameracauna Roos (1- Splash, 1- Lavender ) over my EE hens


1- White Legbar (non-crested)
1- Barred Crested Legbar (not sure of the proper name for his coloring )
These are from shipped eggs, they were used to fill the carton

1- Bantam Cochin (project color) looks like a combination of Columbian + Splash

If anyone is interested in any of these, let me know and I will post pics.

No Silkies but if I did, I'd build a coop that looked like a Space ship.
