    Should I evict my rooster?

    I didn't realize chickens could understand 100 words. rooster's more. Mine were all sweet when they were young and I had spent time with them then, (and did love that rooster), until he was starting to make me fearful. I think he was getting more territorial with the feral rooster hanging around...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    Oh that is wonderful! Thank you for explaining some of them to me. I really do appreciate that. I have a pet dog, pet cats indoor only, several feral cats that I feed and have had neutered and spayed with the catch and release program as well as an Amazon parrot and another rescued bird.... I...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    I live in a city and I'm only allowed to own 4 backyard chickens. I have 3 hens that have been laying eggs since February. I also have a young chicken that will be joining the other 3 soon. It was a tiny chick that two little boys brought to my back door which they found unattended. I just...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    Thank you so much for that info! I usually feed them Nutrina nature wise plus grit and oyster shell and Organic chicken treats, plus they get shredded collard greens and various fruit and raisins.... sometimes scratch or oatmeal, etc. What is broody jail? I tried to get her out of the basket...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    Update: I offered the rooster up on Craiglist and within a couple of days found someone to take him. The person has a small farm on the edge of town and has a couple of hens but no roosters (until now). I cried that first night without him and felt sad for my hens. However the person who took...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    I'm very curious what kind of games you play with him?! Also, I'm not sure what "the wing thing" is? Could you or someone else explain what that means to me? And what "tidbits" do you mean? What treats? I have only used mealworms as treats and I don't give them by hand at all anymore.

    Should I evict my rooster?

    I'm so sorry to learn about your step-dad's leg. I wouldn't have thought anything like that could happen. Thanks for sharing this. I used to call my rooster "Gilligan," but lately I've been calling him Boss-Man! He always seems grumpy. I don't give him or the other hens mealworms from my hand...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    I love chicken soup too, but I would not know what the details of that would involve. He used to be such a cute pet-able chick, but the hormones have taken effect now for sure. Maybe I should spend more time with him and try to re-forge the friendly bond? I will look to purchase the chicken...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    Thank you for letting me know what kind of Rooster he is. Glad you think he's beautiful. He is crowing very often, night and day, with the wild or free-rooster that is nearly always in my yard and crowing back and forth with him. The feral rooster dances back and forth while my rooster is...

    Yeah, I had meant to set him free to fend on his own. Here is a photo of him.

    Should I evict my rooster?

    I don't know what breed he is. He's big and white/gray and not very attractive at least to me! I've got a plymouth rock chicken. She is the largest hen. I've got a caramel-colored Silkie (with the slipper feet), she is his favorite and Ive got a little polish hen who gets away from him more...

    Should I evict my rooster?

    I've never heard of a chicken cape! That's an interesting idea. The free-range rooster doesn't belong to anyone and it doesn't mate with my hens. Also, I'm not looking for baby chicks ever. I wanted the fresh eggs and I'm very happy with the amount of eggs. I will be adding a young hen to the...
