Hmm. Roto-Rooster is only getting more aggressive rather than less. I usually do the early morning feeding of all the critters in my robe and barefeet (then return to the couch and my coffee). That will clearly need to change. When I entered the chicken yard this morning to open their side window, the rooster side stomped me while keeping his hens inside the coop (not sure how he does that). I stomped back at him, yelled and waved my arms around, but was both barefoot and bare-legged so we just had a bit of an unresolved stand-off, eyeballing each other. I plan to don my rubber boots and canvas pants tomorrow morning when making my morning appearance so I can be more aggressively pro-active. He's a young rooster (4.5 months) and has only recently been jumping the hens, so I'm hoping he is going through a teenage phase of some sort (rushing testosterone??)
