She said/He said Who's right? Who's wrong? No one!

I was wondering about this! Down at my neighbors, his Roos will try to mate the younger chickens. I asked him if that meant that the younger ones are girls and he wasn't sure. So the males will try to mate young girls or boys??
I have only seen the d'Uccle do it, but who could blame him? They are beautiful :gig
 
:gig They are very pretty. I wish I had more land, more time, and more money. Then I could breed all different types and satisfy the addiction!
That just makes it worse. I have land, a little money, and 130 chickens. That's like turning a drug addict loose in Walgreens

So far this is the first problem I've had with two together. My oldest 2 in the first coop are great together. They accept one's a leader and the other is not. Never had a problem other than the one being human aggressive. But unfortunetly Gibbs is just not one of those roos that can share, even if he's not being challenged. It's a shame, but if I can find a home that'll keep him it would make it much easier.... why are the good looking males always a pain??? Hmm??? Can you tell me why? You can base it one personal experience.....

Thanks.

sounds like elvis might need to be the one to go . or just kept separate . It is hard but you really sound like you don't want to give up either .remember dons barrels . I do and think about them a lot .small cheap weather proof and I remember him saying he kept his roosters separate . another pen to feed is all

Elvis isn't going if he makes it. He's my pure spitz and usually calm. I wouldn't get rid of my calm one for an over dominant one. I'd rather have the more gentle roo, plus he's my roo for my spitz hen.

Is he dominant or aggressive towards you?

My co pilot and I treked an hour 1 way to see the avian vet about his bumble. Turns out to be a septic joint :( but got some antibiotics to hopefully help (open to administration suggestions). Then it was nap time on the way home after snacking on some organic kale & beet greens :)
