Pesky Rooster

[Thelonious]

Hi there! I just started raising chickens. I built the coop 3 months ago and the chickens are in, but for the last week or so I've had 2 roosters from out of no where hanging around. This morning they were on my roof! I'm going to try shooting them with an air-soft gun that I'm borrowing from my friend because I can't seem to do anything to chase them off. Maybe a little sting will give them the idea? Any ideas short of shooting them that will get them away from my property and leave my chickens alone? And I don't want to keep them, if I can catch them and get them out of our hair that'd be the idea..

basically you haveterritory that isnt claimed with ladies on it, the only sure fire way to get rip of them is to put a rooster in your flock otherwise they will just keep comeing back
