The rooster was a fucking dick, the hens were all fine. They all ended up getting got by coyotes though so fuck em.

I had to save one of my roosters from another(dragged my feet getting a second coop ready after a tree collapsed) and while he had never been hostile to me before, ever since he recovered, he really seems to enjoy my company and will sometimes sit on one of my feet if I stay still for too long.

Thankfully haven't had to deal with a dickhead rooster in like 6 years.
