Hi, my daughter raised our chickens from chicks, and the rooster is ok around her in the run, but he escapes often, comes to the front door wanting treats. If he sees her when he's out, he chases her like a maniac...for acres! He pecks at her if he catches up! When I go near him, he lays flat until I pass, then follows me. If I turn around or stop, he goes flat again. Why such different behavior shown towards us? P.s. if my husband or son are near, he completely ignores them. Thank you for any thoughts on this! Oh! Our rooster is an Americauna (sp?), 20 weeks old and we have 6 hens, same age (still no eggs), mixed black sexlinks and americaunas.
