older rooser keeps *hopping*one of our new chickens

[iperk78]

So we have ca rooser that will be 1 year old next month and we have 14 new chickens that we purchased at the end of march. March. Anyways the rooster has bin hooping abs feels like picking on 1 of the new chickens. Don't see any marks or anything on her but she is always sleeping in different area then the rest. Won't go outside. And as soon as on of us is there she trys to cuddle or hide under us. Feels like she has ptsd from that rooster.is there such a thing as the blank sheep of the flock? That rooster has bin attacking everyone is my family except me. So I'm really the only one that is going to the coop.
Do what can I do as far as the chicken goes. Feel so bad that she is always in the coop. Won't go outside. When I'm there and when I take her outside she just follows me like puppy and as soon as she is outside rooster jumps in top of her

She has become an easy target for the rooster. If it were me, I would remove the rooster from the flock given his human aggressiveness. If you choose to keep him make sure that she is getting enough to eat and drink and that he is not injuring her.

We were thinking turning him in to dinner if he keeps this up. But he does look after the yung chickens. So far out of 14 new chickens we have there are 3 roosters. But it breaks my heart to see her just sitting in the coop.we have 2 black sexlinks.rest are road ilends and forgot the other one. So she is not only black one. She is my daughters favorite. She looks like cinnamon. That's her name. But that poor girl just sits there. And I know they are too yung to be starting to lay eggs

You may have to decide which bird to keep, the rooster who is human aggressive or a pullet that will give you eggs. You're going to have to make some decisions about those 4 males anyway.

So true. Like I said the only good thing about that rooster now is that he does look out for the flock. Except the one that he seems to have some kind d of issue
How many roostets are recommended when you have 13 girls
