8 week old cockerel violently attacking sibling

Posting a quick update. I put the crele in “jail” for two days. After upgrading their run space and separating him for two days and two nights, I released him in the run. At first the positions switched where now the ginger red was attacking him and running him off. After a couple of hours of this everything calmed down and now they are cuddling together. I’m fully aware this could happen again but for now I am choosing to carefully monitor them for any further signs of aggression. I am on day two now with no incidents

Thank you for the update.

Hopefully, it will stay rather peaceful for some time before they start to harrass the pullets trying to mate.

Have a separate coop and run ready for them to protect your pullets from being starved, raped and seriously injured.
