Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

Whew... we got home a couple of hours ago. I checked on the Mean One and he needed water and food. When I reached into the dog crate.... he bit me.. twice! The big girls were out free ranging and Rumples was in the pen, so I thought that I would see what Mean One would do when I let him back with his siblings. Well.... He IMMEDIATELY attacked the other male Lav. It was aggressive! I tossed him out with the big girls. Until I can rehome him, he will sleep in the dog crate and free range with the big girls. I am pretty sure that 2 of the Lav Ams are male. The other is a pullet. Little Bit I believe is a pullet.
Fishing was ok. On Friday I had the lead catfish in the women's division of the Derby. 6#2oz. The next day I caught a 7#14oz, but was beat out by a 8#15oz. Such is Life.

YIPPEE got THREE!!
 
Well Done Scrambles! you caught some really nice fish and the quality time outdoors makes it just fine for a 2nd place finish! Sounds like the Mean One is just a dominant roo. one of my originals along with Royce, was Barney. he was awesome, but very very dominant, very aggressive with everyone (except me, as he seemed smitten... brought me pine cones and other little gifts) he was my first casualty by fox. and I think the fox did me a favor. rehoming can help settle their personalities, but a truly dominant roo is simply that and may not make his new family happy. good luck!

If I lived in the country with acreage, I would consider keeping him, but.... space is limited here and DH does not like to hear the crowing. I kinda like it myself.
 
Welcome back scrambles!!

I only got 5 today!

Some of the hooligans are getting much redder in the face. I must get their nest boxes set up w fake eggs. Tho with how much they like to be outside I'm pretty sure they'll find an obscure place to lay!!!

Waiting on the last chick to hatch!!
