Roo behavior

[rookea]

All the cock/erels are beautiful.......but like mama used to say 'pretty is as pretty does'.

I've seen some ghastly behavior from my mellow fellow cockbird when there were other males around....
...but he calmed right back down(like immediately) after removing the other males.

Multiple males can create an environment of competition where none of them are on their best behavior.

Are you from the south??? All our moms say that in Alabama and it's So true. I'm praying he calms down when the other one is removed. That would be fabulous!! Thank you for all your help.

Click on his handle/name,(aart) you will see he's from southwest Michigan. It's a good idea to put your general location in your profile, to get correct answers to questions you may have

about your chickens. GC
