| Question about Pets:How Do I Stop My Rooster From Attacking Me?.? |
I have owned many chickens and some roosters are just like this. No matter what you do and how nice you are to them they will always come back to get you. I am sorry to say this but even if you say that you are proven the powerful leader he will not stop. He will attack you when you turn your back to him. And he will also attack anyone else that comes in your yard. (You can decide if that is a plus or not)
When you get a rooster like this it is up to you to decide if he stays or goes. There are plenty of roosters out in the world that need good homes. If this fella wants to be a prick give him away or eat him. Then get yourself another rooster that is good to your hens and you. I have tried so many times to make my mean roosters nice. One mean rooster that I had gotten had frostbite. I took him in the house and catered to him for over a week. When he finely was able to go outside with the other birds he still hated people and attacked visitors and I frequently. You can’t change a mean rooster. He will always be mean.
Also if you decide that you want to get a new rooster then I suggest calmer breeds. I have noted that the roosters seem so much friendlier. Some of these breeds are Cochins, and Brahmas.
Separating roosters is commonly used when a rooster is attacking weaker members of the flock. Though you are a member of the flock you are stronger than the rooster. He knows that, he is just giving you a hard time. I have personally tried this when roosters are attacking other chickens and it worked. But, when it came to the rooster attacking me it seemed to just make matters worse. So separating him wouldn’t be suggestible.
Good luck,
chicken owner
