Stray Roosters

[MotherHen75]

The two adult roosters have seemed to work it out, it would be the bantam roosters that I would worry about. I am pretty sure the two stray roosters will make mincemeat out of them. In their mind, the hens are their flock, and will probably accept the chicks, but once the chick roosters begin to grow up, I would assume the fighting to start.

If you do not want these birds, call animal control, they are not your birds, not your responsibility. It would be best if you had them contained when animal control got there. Getting them off the roost is the easiest, but a fishnet will work in a pinch.

They are being bullies to my hens. They back up a little them kick them, also pecking them on the head. They are going. Might take you up on the animal control idea.

I was talking about the adult stray roosters eventually attacking her young bantam roosters, I stated they had worked it out, referring to the two adult stray rooster getting along with each other while with the flock. I am assuming the op's remarks are to the fact that the stray roosters are bullying her hens.
