RHODE ISLAND RED ROOSTERS

[Chirpchirp19]

Our little hobby farm has two roosters that we need gone They have never shown any aggression towards people, and are great roosters except they kept attacking just one hen. We are thinking it's because the hen won't submit to them. Any other hen they are great with, it's just this one hen. We are located in Byron, New York. Please shoot me a message if interested. I hate to see them go but I feel keeping them in a coop and run by themselves is also sad. Thank you.

Boys can happily live together as long as there aren't any hens in the mix.
Truthfully, if you offer them for free on CL they are likely to be killed or used as dog bait...
I would make them a little coop and run for now and see what pans out. I have 4 roosters in a boys only pen and they get along great

I have a suggestion. Get rid of one of your roos, this maybe a mating competition between the two roos who both want the one hen, & your problem should be fixed.

Even with just the one hen? Any other hen they have no problem being around but once this hen comes into their line of view it's game over.

Yes, the problem should be fixed if you remove the competitor.
