Hen Killing Roosters???

[Wyorp Rock]

Yeah she managed to get in one of my females pins today and killed one of them for no reason. I dont know what her problem is. But i dont think i could cull her ill push that one onto my dad LOL

She has killed 2 expensive cockerels and 1 pullet.
No matter how sweet she is with humans, she needs to be culled.

If Dad can't/won't cull her, then then this is your time to learn. Everyone that has chickens will eventually have to put one down for some reason, so knowing how to do it quickly and efficiently is just part of being a chicken keeper.

It sounds like she's killed many of your birds. She's shown you what she's made of.... time to deal with her.

Man hater lol Does she do this to female birds? I’d cull her from your flock.

I noticed your from ohio what part?

Maybe she's territorial or something

Maybe thats what i was thinking but the hen she killed this morning wasnt even near her

Whats the quickest and easiest way to do it

Sounds like aggression! Is she due to molt or something? Move her to a completely different, nowhere near the other birds and try to see if she eats extra feed.

Everyones telling me to cull her i may just post her for free on craigslist since she is a very pretty bird

Probably the rake method... I'll let someone else explain it though...
