Dammit, i had to put the younger rooster down. He was finally coming into maturity, and i had noticed the last few days he was being aggressive with the hens. Then just now i walked in to check for eggs and he came at me with his claws. Luckily i was wearing long pants. Thankfully our older rooster has always been nice. I tell all my roosters that they will only attack me once in their lifetime. #MeanRoosters #homesteading

Can't have that. Had a mean 🐓 one time. He had to go.
Hopefully the soup doesn't taste aggressive 😸
Yeah, Balrog is going into the pot next month. He's ok with the chooks, but he's super aggressive with nostr:nprofile1qqsvpcxyyusnfkfd4pj3v5xppjnp9dcs5ecdtczrfz8j0crn58mr59spr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qgswaehxw309ahx7um5wghx6mmd9usmxlqy
Fortunately, Ninja looks like he's going to be a nicer rooster.

Its hard, but had to be done.
How do you keep multiple roosters? Is that a problem?
I've cared for multiple roosters in one coop. If there are enough hens, and space, it can totally work.
There can still be aggressive individuals, but as you can see from this thread, they're often removed from the scene.
How many hens and how much space are we talking about
I have 16 hens and two roosters everybody gets along.
