SPURS!

[georgiejanet]

Hi, I'm the new girl.
I was complaining about my rooster attacking me ( as well as visitors) and my saavy sister-in-law came up with this site and a how-to on de-spurring without all the blood and guts!
So here I am, chicken-sister since age 9, ready to learn a few more tricks and perhaps share some experiences.

Yeah, there are a lot of good articles on this website ... almost every chicken question I had pointed me here. So, did you de-spur your rooster? Is he still attacking you?

Welcome to BYC

Glad you joined us! Spurs have their use I'm sure, but not nice to be on the receiving end of that use!

How is he doing without spurs? I ask because he still has wings and a sharp beak and nails to do damage with. Removing his spurs won't change his personality.
