Thank you for asking…. My rooster was still a little aggressive after awhile trying your technique. I persist with the technique you recommended and he eventually came to be respectful. When I enter the chicken run he runs away instead of charging at me. Thank you and God Bless 🙏🏾 This was very useful information.
Yes thank you I’m going to try this method I have tried others many times over but it failed. I raised my Roo from a baby unbeknownst to me it was growing into a Roo. He is a BRock but he has become extremely aggressive. He stalks me and my 5 yr old Gbaby. He’s attacked me just sitting in a chair. I’m so torn about getting rid of him because he is very protective especially against Hawks. So I’m sooo frustrated with him. I pray this works. I stand my ground and I fight him back but it’s getting very very old!! Thanks so much for your video.
I spent most of this morning in my hen house with my rooster, I've had many before, though none were as aggressive as this one, about 9 months old now... He strutted and talked all around me as I sat on a bucket hand feeding my hens meat strip's, until finally he came for me, and I caught him of guard. I tried this method, and he's now much more hesitant. I like to be able to handle my flock with ease, most of my chickens even when free range, you can walk up to them and pet them, hand feed them, or collect their eggs even when sitting. I admire this rooster though, because I know he'll hold the fort by placing his body on the line. We only need that mutual respect... After the first time he attacked me; I yodelled back "I love chicken soup"..! 😂 His feathers ruffled even more... 💪😂👍
@@santos8679 because they can cause you to get stitches with their spurs and leave bruses on you as well I got a Barre he a big bird and not very friendly at all
I’ve tried this now a lot but doesn’t seem to work. I’m posting him on Facebook to try and rehome him but that’s if someone wants a aggressive one. He constantly shows aggression towards and flogs me. Time for him to go.
Reading with specific reason in mind from as many you tubes With two failed re homing attempt with our 13 month old large rooster . We had him since he was few days old chic We don't want him ended up with wrong hand Let's train him BTW how can we clip his sharp nails and spur. Do u have any videos
At what age can you start doing this to a rooster? I have a 6 week old rooster who is pecking me and being aggressive already. Is this method effective at this age too??
What if your child is very young? My daughter is only 1.5 years old. I just discovered that my 16 week old chicken, which I thought was a hen, is actually a rooster. He has always been fine around my daughter, but he recently attacked me twice. I did hold him down, and he seems to be respect me now, but do you think he will turn on my daughter?
Yes. Kids want to follow or chase hens. Roosters see that as a threat to his hens. I grew up with holes in my legs from getting spurred ;) I finally got enough size to counter that behavior.
Yes a rooster threw me on the ground and tried to peck my eyes out when I was a only 1-2 years old and playing in our backyard. Thank God he missed and pecked my eyebrow but I had a scar above my left eye for many years.
Negative point of doing this method is that the rooster will think you are the dominant one so YOU protect the flock and then the rooster you're pinning down will no longer protect the hens! I would not use this method.
A rooster will always protect his flock. Chicken don't think like a human. A rooster will use his instinct and will always do what a rooster is supposed to do.
I tried this. it didn't work. my rooster is a Ameraucana. I did that and I walked around with him. he still tries to attack me. I did this more then once. so I don't know what to do.
It didn't work with my Black Copper Maran rooster either. In the summer, I wore short and my shins were black and blue and scratched, LOL. I couldn't count how many times I did this. One time, because I was double tasking, I pinned him down with one hand while holding another chicken with my other arm, when I let go of him so I could put the other chicken safely in the coop (it was a hen that he mounted too roughly that she got shredded), he didn't even dare to move from the ground. But the next day, his memory was wiped clean and he's back to being a jerk. Another time, I pinned him and following another advice, I was trying to mimic with my finger another rooster pecking at his head, comb and pulling at his hackle feathers. Another rooster, seeing that this alpha rooster down took advantage and pecked on him too, which actually pecked on my hand because my hand was in the way. I also tried another advice: just holding the rooster under my armpit and walking around doing chore. Nope. that didn't help either.
I'm surprised Ameraucana could be aggressive. Husband ordered 28 chicks. 20 Wyandottes and 8 Ameraucanas, 5 of them were roosters. They're all the most nervous chickens I've ever had. They flew blindly in panic at the slightest threat. When they couldn't get away from what they're afraid of, they would put their head down in the corner (or just down if there's no corner), making them more appetizing to the other chickens to peck and bully them some more even if they weren't doing it to start with. Weird chickens, Ameraucanas. At the same time, though, they're the most human-sociable breed of chickens I have. The smallest of my ameraucanas, a hen we named Tiny, she learned that when I or my husband came to the run, we're her safe 'perch' so she always ran toward us or if we didn't notice her, she would pull on our boots or pants asking us to pick her up and she'd sit on our shoulder, safe from other chickens. Tiny was sold to my husband's friend and now her sisters: Bao and Feng do the same. The roosters do not like being held/touched but they don't mind us coming near them or they come near us.
Here's what you do git leather gloves have a coht on and pants And shoes then wen he attacks you won't git hurt and he bits /claws hold that but original top secret of friendly rooster
I’m sorry Kurt but you were egging him on by pushing your booted foot in his face and of course he will attack. From his pov you started it. Also you metaphorically castrated him in front of his girls Not sure if that’s the only way to do that. I’ve had roosters and once you do what you did with your boot they will be sure to want to fight you any time they see you. It’s just their instinct. Poor boy. He’s handsome
This is a REALLY bad idea. You do this with a rooster with a dopamine/ amigdala issue it will get worse not better. On a normal rooster it will make it to where if there are weather issues like blizzards, tornadoes, hurricanes etc you will have a really hard time putting him somewhere safe in an emergency. If he gets injured ir sick he will be hell to treat. Please go look at roovelution for more on alternatives to rooster submission training.
Thank you. Very simple and clear. Good demonstration. The sound was good.
I’ve done this many times, my rooster still tries to challenge me
That is because your rooster has a dopamine/ amigdala issue like my rooster Finn does. Go look at roovelution

How did you go..?
Hoping for an update on this ☝🏽 hopefully with no storys of anyone getting hurt.
Exactly what I do with mine, works really well!

💪😂👍
Great video, couldn't have explained it better.
It's hard to do it with a 8 pound bird
Very good, we will try this! Thank you.
What size is your chicken pen
Thank you
Great video thank you.
Yes I would like more on these
Thank you and I’ll try this with my rooster for sure. I was a little afraid of him but not anymore after watching your video. 👍🏾
How u gonna be afraid of a rooster
@@santos8679 because they can cause you to get stitches with their spurs and leave bruses on you as well I got a Barre he a big bird and not very friendly at all
How did you go..?
I recommend having a aggressive rooster, because they're not going to hesitate to defend your flock..!
Great stuff
Very great information
Would female farmer tame the rooster better or no?
can we do this to gamefowl too?
It works did this with my roster!
I have done that two dozen times or more a my rooster still comes after me when I turn my back
I’ve tried this now a lot but doesn’t seem to work. I’m posting him on Facebook to try and rehome him but that’s if someone wants a aggressive one. He constantly shows aggression towards and flogs me. Time for him to go.
What did you end up doing with him?
Reading with specific reason in mind from as many you tubes
With two failed re homing attempt with our 13 month old large rooster . We had him since he was few days old chic
We don't want him ended up with wrong hand
Let's train him
BTW how can we clip his sharp nails and spur. Do u have any videos
At what age can you start doing this to a rooster? I have a 6 week old rooster who is pecking me and being aggressive already. Is this method effective at this age too??
This can be applied to any age. Use this procedure and repeat until he recognizes you are the dominant one.
What if your child is very young? My daughter is only 1.5 years old. I just discovered that my 16 week old chicken, which I thought was a hen, is actually a rooster. He has always been fine around my daughter, but he recently attacked me twice. I did hold him down, and he seems to be respect me now, but do you think he will turn on my daughter?

Yes a rooster threw me on the ground and tried to peck my eyes out when I was a only 1-2 years old and playing in our backyard. Thank God he missed and pecked my eyebrow but I had a scar above my left eye for many years.
should i repeat this 5 times in a day or same time?
Each time you go to the chicken coop
Negative point of doing this method is that the rooster will think you are the dominant one so YOU protect the flock and then the rooster you're pinning down will no longer protect the hens! I would not use this method.
A rooster will always protect his flock. Chicken don't think like a human. A rooster will use his instinct and will always do what a rooster is supposed to do.
I did that several times and had zero effect. Some can't be tamed
I just use the old .22 usually takes any mean rooster and changes his behavior immediately and he tastes so yummy fried
I tried this.
it didn't work.
my rooster is a Ameraucana. I did that and I walked around with him.
he still tries to attack me.
I did this more then once.
so I don't know what to do.
It didn't work with my Black Copper Maran rooster either. In the summer, I wore short and my shins were black and blue and scratched, LOL. I couldn't count how many times I did this.

Here's what you do git leather gloves have a coht on and pants And shoes then wen he attacks you won't git hurt and he bits /claws hold that but original top secret of friendly rooster
I’m sorry Kurt but you were egging him on by pushing your booted foot in his face and of course he will attack. From his pov you started it.
Also you metaphorically castrated him in front of his girls
Not sure if that’s the only way to do that.
I’ve had roosters and once you do what you did with your boot they will be sure to want to fight you any time they see you. It’s just their instinct.
Poor boy.
He’s handsome
