hey i have a few roos and i was hoping if any one knew of covers for spurs or if or how you can get spurs removed i have 2 bantams and two standards that al free range together

You can clip the spurs back but it wont stop them from fighting. If there arent any hens with them they will probably stop fighteing.

Dremel tool works great.

I have seen them just twisted off and the Roo didn't even flinch. I know it sounds farfetched but it's true, I sawed it with me one good eye.

well i tried filing down my new bantam roos spurs and then it started to bleed like it was the quick and i didnt watn to hurt him so i did know what to do i stopped the small amount of bleeding. my one bantam and 2 standards grew up together theyre ok so far but this roo is new and has bigger spurs than the rest i have a bunch of hens so that isnt the problem
