rooster problem again

Nothing is working should I put him down like kill him?

Either rehome or yes, cull. I've kept our Roo for this long only cause he does his job very well and doesn't bother me as much since I've held him a few times he flogged me.

Not to beat a dead horse, but either get rid of him or deal with it. Probably the former. Problem solved.

We have other rooster that does the job but since we had him bad

I sympathize with you, youtubeminer. It's not an easy decision to make, but I've decided that my two problem roosters (one that likes to bite and one that likes to try to kill other roosters) are just that, my problem and it's not going to go away on it's own. I have to decide and frankly, I don't want to go on dealing with them to the point that they are past their prime for being butchered for meat and I'm stuck with them through the winter.

One of two things is happening. Either they are going to an Amish neighbor today to become Sunday dinner for them or they are going to the local processor tomorrow and they will become Sunday dinner for us. While I could dispatch them, I have to admit, I've helped process birds before when I was young and helping my mom and I just don't want to do that nasty job again.

As a sister poultry lover once said. I can raise them, I can eat them, I just can't butcher them. If you are like me and just don't want to do the processing job, maybe you can find somebody around you who does and can help you out.

Good luck with whatever decision you make. Trust me. Making that decision is the hardest part.

I'm sorry, Youtubeminer. I know it's hard. Just remember there are nice roosters out there just begging for a loving home. Hopefully one will find its way to you.
