Puff Daddy is serving time for Domestic Abuse

[Uppity Peon]

This morning my lead rooster Puff daddy woke up with a ... bad attitude let's say. He trapped one of the GLW pullets against the fence and started punishing her. She was shrieking and complaining as he continued to bite her. At 16 weeks I don't think she was ready for him but she couldn't get away. So I chased him off with a stick and she ran into some tall grass where he followed and repeated his performance.

I said that's it, Puff. I'm putting you in jail and that's what I did. I'm considering my options. now. Meanwhile My EE cockerel Rusty is getting a bit of a break from Puff Daddy too. I saw him crowing for the first time this morning shortly after his older rival went to the hoosegow.

Rusty: you can see he's missing a few saddle feathers but he seems to be pretty good at evading Puff usually.

Poor girl. Hopefully Puff Daddy learns his lesson on how to treat a woman.

Puff Daddy is gorgeous, but if he doesn't know how to treat a hen civilly, his genes should be discontinued, if you get my drift. What kind of life is it for a brutilized, terrorized hen?

If that picture is Rusty, I'd say it's a good thing to let Rusty have a go at the girls - he's beautiful!

Puff Daddy deserves to go to the slammer for a while...

If he continues to be mean to the girls, I would not tolerate that in a rooster either. Either sell him or freezer camp. Really no reason to tear them up.

I had to get get of some of the most gorgeous roos in the barn just because of this.

My hens were losing feathers and finally one day my little polish came in with a bum eye.

That was it. I gathered up the ones I knew were cuasing the problems and off they went.

The barn, the barn yard, the hens and roos are ALL a much happier group of chickens.

Sometimes you just have to rid your flock of problem roos.

For a second there I thought you meant the rap dude. But then I remembered he is now Sean Combs, so hard to keep up with these people and their names!

That said, bad boy-in the slammer you go! Rusty is a little stud-let him handle the ladies for a while!

lol

This is Puff Daddy in jail. I don't know what to do. He's pretty cool too, but I can't have him abusing the girls. The problem is he is a little older and he was given to me by my neighbor, so he isn't really close to the rest of the flock. I have 3 roosters alltogether, and 20 females, so we are probably 1 rooster too many.

Rusty is a handsom guy... Puff Daddy would be pot pie at my house. And I don't think he's half as pretty as Rusty!
