YO GEORGIANS! :)

Yesterday afternoon my DH came into the house saying that our head rooster, Ace an SS was attacking his shoes. He would shew him off and Ace would come at him again and again.


Some of the roo experts (folks that keep a lot of game roosters) on here say going "passive" is the best way to stop a rooster attack and calm them down. No reaction, no shooing away, just be passive so your actions don't further antagonize the rooster and he stops seeing you as a threat.

Also being aware of body language that seems threatening to roosters. If it were me I would wear proper shoes/clothing so I wouldn't have to be afraid and practice passivity for a few days to see if that resolves the situation.

A few months back I was trying to find adult OEG bantam hens. After looking EVERYWHERE I finally thought to reach out to the OEG Bantam show folks. Found a breeder 2 hours away that had gorgeous retired show hens, he gave me two 4-year-old hens as he has to make room for younger birds. I love those hens! One is hatching the batch of shipped eggs in the coop as we speak.

You might want to consider that if you can find a show breeder. http://www.polishbreedersclub.com/historyofclubofficers.htm
Thanks so much!!

Thanks! I will let my husband know and see if he can just "let it go" for a while and see if they calm down.
 
Yesterday afternoon my DH came into the house saying that our head rooster, Ace an SS was attacking his shoes. He would shew him off and Ace would come at him again and again. Now the girls all like my DH. When he sits outside the girls come up to him and sit on his legs. I told him I think Ace doesn't like the girls showing him so much attention. LOL! However, my DH believes that Ace is attacking him because when our other SS rooster Silver flew over the fence this past weekend my DH caught him an tossed him back in the fenced in area. Does anyone have any idea why Ace may be attacking my DH?


When all else fails.....PUNT! Drop kicking one's *** across the yard usually resolves aggression issues because he realizes you are fully dominant over him. I am NEVER submissive to any animal I own as that may encourage further aggressive behavior if they think they are the dominant one.

I thought I had read a while back where a woman was having problems with a rooster and she would pick him up and/or poke him with her finger like a beak poke when he was being aggressive and it worked. One of our roosters danced around me so I reached for him and he bit me so I picked him up and held him for a bit then put him back down. He then left me alone. So should my DH show him who is boss (not hurting him) or ignore him?

Well it's how I broke you so of course you're familiar with the technique.

I agree 100%. If it continues after that point you should get rid of the animal as it instincts are way off.
