    RIR Hen Won't Stop Attacking Dog

    We have a 2-year-old RIR hen who will constantly attack our 3 1/2-year-old male labrador retriever. I knew that RIR's were aggressive, but not this aggressive! It started small, she would peck at him if he got to close or tried to sniff at her. But then she started running up to him, to the...

    Broody-ish Hen

    I have a 7 month Buff Orpington that started laying a little over a month ago. Recently (about two weeks now), she's been aggressive while on the nest. She'll make this awful warning noise if I open up the door, she'll puff up, and she's pecked me hard enough to draw blood the past two days. I...

    Any reforming a rooster that acts like a jerk?

    I have a 4 month old Barnevelder rooster. For several weeks he has been rather aggressive with our hens (mating) but I haven't been too concerned since this is rather natural and there are 14 hens and only the one rooster so he doesn't pick on any one too much. The problem is that in the last...

    I want some opinions on this, I believe one of my roosters, a young Jersey Giant/RIR cross killed one of my hens. This morning when I went to do chores I found her in the coop, neck and head all bloody and she was stiff, so I think it happened last night before I turned their light off. Everyone...
