Rooster started humping my TV remote.😱

[Hei 20]

Do have space for even just ONE more hen? Possibly? I know I'm stretching it.....

I can make it happen. I just have change more diapers. LOL
But I'm thinking maybe to take him back to his parents home. I can still go visit him there. But everyone in this complex is in love with him.

 

[Hei 20]

Are you in an apartment or townhouse? Oh goodness...you realize he is gonna crow at some point

His has been crowing, even while in the balcony. Everyone loves him.

It really sucks you are in this situation, I'm sorry.

I only have one rooster, no hens in sight.
I was hoping it would turn out to be a hen but it didn't work out that way.
I knew this day would come, but I didn't know it would come this soon.
He has been humping my hand and the remote for a few days now.
Luckily for me and the remote,
he wears chicken diapers.
So, what do I do now?
I have no option on getting more poultry,
I shouldn't even have him either.
But I hatched him as an egg
and now I'm in love with him.
He is a indoor rooster pet.
I blame Covid 19 boredom
for hatching him out.
I don't know how to add a video so I only have pictures.

He needs a hen. I know you love him but he will be unhappy if he stays all alone. Chickens are social creatures, and should not be without a companion.

He is not saying that he likes you. He is dominating you. Petting a rooster simulates a submissive hen preening them.

Hey that's still a type of love.

 

[Chickassan]

Why must you kill me and make me waste so much tea?

You have the power to make his life better,
somewhere that he can have real chickens to hump.

 

[SulkyBantam]

But he is my baby!!!!

No, he's an unhappy chicken in an unnatural environment.

I know

I'm sorry but I agree.

You love him and I totally get that but he needs outside space not a balcony and other chickens.

So many people have got chickens because of covid but they should have thought about it first.
Please send him to a farm for his own happiness. Even if you got a hen, how can he forage and dusbathe and do natural chicken things in a house?

But I really sympathise because i'd love him too!

What if the rooster preens you?
Does that make you the bigger, cleaner rooster?
I want to be sure im not sending mixed signals to my guys.

I'm in love with him.

If you really love him, give him some hens and his own space (coop and run) and let him live a real rooster life.
