Rooster won’t stop screaming!

[HuffleClaw]

Okay, so I added 3 young pullets to an existing flock of 4 older hens (all bantams) integration day worked PERFECTLY! So, I took the Mille fluer d’uccale rooster out because he was mating with the pullets CONTINUALLY!! The pullets are about 3 months old btw. I let him out, yes no coop just out... He was out of a coop almost all his life and loved it until he got a few hens... the problem is he is screaming ALL the time, when he wakes up and before he goes to sleep... What do I do?!?

Screaming or crowing? Because if he is crowing he might just be being territorial of the new girls.

Could he be in pain?

Is he in pain or attacking anybody?

You mean he is clucking like that 24/7?

Have you added anything new to the coop lately? Are the girls being loud when laying eggs? When my girls are clucking my rooster clucks too. Are there any animals around the coop that he can see? Maybe he spots something you don't.

He may want inside coop to mate with the new pullets. Needed to edit auto correct thinks pullets are pulleys.

If he got used to being in the coop with the flock, and now he's locked out it's probably pretty stressful. Is there a way you can include him yet still maintain separation. A dog crate inside with the hens at night maybe.

Wait a minute, you mean he is locked out of the coop? I don't think I understood that. I would put him back in and separate him from the new girls.
