    My rooster held off 2 pitbulls and saved my chickens but also survived. He is a Rhode Island red

    I’m surprised Marans roosters didn’t get a mention. We have a black copper maran rooster at work. He’s so gentle, leads his ladies around to food, waits until they’ve had a go before he has some, waits outside the coop when they’re laying etc. The only time I’ve seen him get feisty was when someone’s off lead dog tried to chase the hens and he soon saw to it. Feels bad we called him Hugh after Hugh Hefner 😅

    I had aggressive and large Australorp rooster. He was very bully to all birds, and when he attacked muscovy drake, muscovy drake beat the shit out of him. Since that fight, rooster was avoiding muscovy drake in large circle

      That's quite a story! Seems like the Australorp met his match. It's interesting how roosters establish their own pecking order.

    Don't get Jersey Giant roosters. I had several of them, one was attackingme when I was feeding them, and he never protected his ladies. We actually lost two chickens during his short reign (we made him soup) and I saw him hitting the chickens also, he was a bully.
    The best rooster we had was a silver wayandotte, who actually sacrificed himself for his ladies fighting a hawk to the death, poor thing. I still miss his loving behavior towards his ladies, he always called them towards him offered them worms and protecting them with his life. 😢

    The Australorps are also mean not only to the hens but to others roosters as well

    • @Agronomag
      @Agronomag  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Australorps can sometimes show aggressive behavior, not just towards hens but also towards other roosters. This can depend on various factors such as their environment, social hierarchy, and individual temperament.

    The Java roosters are hard to be found and they're practically wild, they won't stay around and they will roost on the trees

    • @Agronomag
      @Agronomag  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Java roosters are indeed a rare find and have a wild streak, often choosing trees over coops for roosting. Their love for the high branches is a natural instinct for safety. Offering them secure and comfy spots might help keep them closer to home.

    You don't have to have roosters to hsve eggs and keep your chickens in a fence burned in the ground clip thier wings so they can't fly and burn thier top beak back so they dont pull out each others feathers

      @caperica 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      What a horrible thing to do……why would you do that. I love my chickens and want them to be able to get out of danger if they need to fly. Roosters need their beaks. To protect. And why. Would maim you’re hens? If your chickens are pulling out feathers of others, your doing something very wrong.

      Only if under stress, like crowed conditions. And burn their beaks? Seriously? I have have 15 chickens, none of them get attacked by the others. Mine are e in a large fenced area as well as their run and coop. I don’t know your circumstances, perhaps you have too many for the space you have. If they are bored or over crowed, is when picking happens. Left penned up like that and they have issues. Their natural instinct is to forage and hunt bugs. To burn back Their beaks hinders that ability. I feel sorry for chickens whos owners take drastic measures instead of learning Chicken behavior.
