pecking

Ok. I am thinking I do not know chickens very well. Some one told me that my "nice" rooster would always be nice. He used to always let me pick him up and pet him. He would totally relax his feet. But since the day the mean alpha rooster started pecking him and tried to fight with him, he has changed. We put the alpha rooster in a cage by himself. But it doesn't seem to make a difference to my once nice rooster. He tries to peck me now and almost stops to let me pick him up then changes his mind and runs away. I guess roosters can't be pets after all. I am sad

from Washington! In our flock we have great people and it is always great to have a new member:) In our flock, we have no pecking order!

By the way, not saying that you will do anything bad, but no fowl play

Same here, I think they need more room.
 
They have the whole back yard about 3/4 acre, it's not the room it's just he changed on me. I am almost afraid of him

. Wishing I could pick him up again. But I'm afraid he will peck me as he has and made me bleed

Thank you frindizzle. I am going to buy some thick gloves and try picking him up that way. I am not giving up yet !!!
 
Thank you! Can you tell me where I go to view the pictures I uploaded here ? I don't see them anywhere. Thanks !!
 
They should be on your posts you put them on.

Do you at least see a gray line where the pic is supposed to be?

What kind of computer do you have?
