I think I have a cockerel. Now what do I do?

Excellent info that goes hand in hand with my experiences. Room for a little more indepth info but for a quick overview of someone researching how to deal with aggressive roo's, it's great and to the point.

Very clear and to the point, with accompanying actions to implement.

excellent article with easy to implement recommendations. I appreciate the perspective from what one should and should not do to train a rooster. very helpful advice.

This is a well written and nicely illustrated article on dealing with a first and unplanned rooster in the flock, which happens to many people when they start out by buying hatching eggs or young chicks. It describes the sort of problems they might face, and emphasizes that once a roo is trained to be a good, well behaved rooster, he will then train any more young roos that are raised within the flock. It advises eating any that cannot or will not learn to behave. It chimes with my experience of raising and keeping roosters. And it deserves much better reviewers than the anonymous twit who gave it a one-line review and a 1.

Entertaining and informative!

“I would wear myself out chasing him and shoving him, not having a single clue how to deal with a rooster. Sadly, Stan died”

Problem solved I guess.

An enjoyable read with personal experience illustrating the general principles.

Good tips

Pretty good article, but there are a couple of spelling errors.
