I would love a place to sit and relax. To bad the stupid rooster attacks me any time I go near... It runs from my husband but attacks me and the kids... They can't even go out any more to help without fear of that bird... He's to old to change his ways... My husband says it's good that he protects the ladies. But NOT from me you evil bird... I want to get a diffrent one to change out but my husband says they will all be like that... I've seen some very gentle ones and some beasts... How do I convene him to get a new one and put this guy where he belongs... IN THE FREEZER!!!!

process him and serve him up for dinner. Then tell him that the rooster is missing.

i had one like that went after my daughter, kept her in corner, every time she went to move he would go at her, I took him to action, don't have the heart to kill anything but flies. lol I guess someone else had him for dinner.

I had to break my rooster from coming at me. I peppered him with a handful of scratch once and now he behaves himself

Show your husband a few pics of the damage a rooster can do to a child. If that doesn't convince him, nothing will (and if it were me, I'd put my foot down about it; kids' safety HAS to come first).

I have caught them and hung them by their feet... till they hang thier wings in the I give up mode.... but when a child is involved time to take that to the freezer. I also find that older roosters are better citizens and I have had as many as four at one time.... Usually the oldest more dominant is so busy riding herd on the upstarts he hasnt time to mess with people...

Thats been my experience... That and a couple of bucks might get you a cup of coffee.

I've had the same issue with a couple of roosters in the past. The ones I have now are really good and respectful. You should let your husband know that you do not feel safe, and if you have any small children around they are definitely not safe. I can tell you that they are NOT all the same. Some are very respectful of people and other are just something that rhymes with axe wholes lol. You should not keep him around if you have to constantly be watching your back in fear.

The only nasty rooster I have is an OEGB and he's only mean when he's in a mood lol. My other roos only come running at me if they know I have a handful of treats and it's definitely not to attack!

Thanks everyone one the help over this roo... As for hitting him with a stuck... This joker broke it in half... I've grabbed his head, held him upside down, tried to court favor with treats.... As soon as I turn my back or open the gate... Attack bird....

My husband says it's good because he will protect the girls from snakes and such... I say COOK HIM and get a new one.... Any ideas on how to raise one that makes him safe for kids?
