I'm so angry at my boy's. They ample hen's yet tonight they ganged up on one hen. They all took a turn. I know that's callused but that is exactly what they did. I do not permit them to mate when I'm in the yard. They free range during the day. If they do attempt to mate I pick the Roo's up and carry them around for a bit. It has always worked. But not tonight!!! I'd pick one up and there was another one right there mounting the same hen. I separated all the Roo's in their own pen for now. Is it the heat making them act up? Any insight on what in the world is going on would be super helpful! As protective and useful in keeping all the ladies safe from predators, I am not going to tolerate them ganging up and being mean to the hens!
