I was just reading some stuff online about people having so much trouble with there roosters. I mean there attacking there owners even neighborhood children. I know roosters do have a mean streek but I must be lucky my 4 roosters are the sweetest things. Every day I go and sit on a milk crate in there pen and everyday thay come right to me. Thay will hope up on my lap and ill rub them like u would a dog.the smallest one likes to sit on my shoulder and he will gently rub his head on my cheek. But I don't know what's going on with other peoples roosters maybe its how there being raised or even kept. Anybody else have any ideas why alot of peoples roosters are going nuts?

Do you have hens with the roosters? I think some roos are protective of their 'girls' and see the humans as an enemy... some Roo's are just genetically inclined to be mean roosters as some breeds are more aggressive than others. at certain stages of life the hormones spike and make the even more crazy. I don't think I'd say it is how they are raised and kept.. Just my 2 cents on roosters.

My rooster's will never see any of my hens. I knew not to get that started.lol..

i once had a roo that was very beautiful and i loved him. But once our neighbors little cockerel showed up and all that sweetness with my roo changed. He turned against me, the cockerel, and sometimes even the hens. He would flog me like crazy, and to make me mad he would hurt the hens, and chase down the cockerel down and attack him. we did our best to rehome him. Yet, no one needed a mean rooster. Finally though, someone did and he is now doing fine! It all depends on the individual rooster i'm sure.

I took a lot of care to make sure our roosters will never even see the girls.the rooster's have a huge pen with and its under a roof. At sertin times of the day I let my boys out and thay go back in the pen at a certain time. This will probably sound nuts but we have a guest house and its a studio apartment. It was never being used so I figured why not I put a wall down the middle of it and one side was for chicks and the other side is my coop. And my girls have there own way outside and thay never come in contact with the roosters. It might sound nuts but it works.

That is a great idea. I do keep mine with some hens, I like to hatch chicks from time to time, but I think the ladies are the reason my two problem guys are so defensive.

My rooster midas is only mean to other hens he grabs them with his beak and won't let go until feathers are pulled out.but he is super scared of all humans. I guess it just depends on the roo roo.
