my cock bird norbit has gone loopy

he is attacking me and the hen i cant get in to do water or food

iv closed the hen in the box so he cant get to her
but i cant leave her in there


i didnt think light sussex did this as a breed

i dont know what to do other than the unthinkable

so i need help   :cry:  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:

Is the Hen coming into lay NP or has she started laying?

Bodger will know more but my sussex cock had a lovely temperment :?

Could it just be that he's been frightened by something or someone??


Hope you get it sorted

There have been a few posts about this sort of behaviour in the past NP it seems the consensus is to give him a hug and it will make him feel better

          No really thats what they will say    

I have a nice scar on my leg from my now deceased cockerel their spurs are sharp when they catch you :twisted:

Is he being protective of his conjugal rights ??

He might see you as a threat ??

No idea why he's attacking the hen though.

Wait for Munty or Bodger to advise you NP.  I'm sure they'll have some good ideas  :!:

[agapanthus]

Muntjac says get a  2ft square board (lightweight) and put a handle on it...if he comes towards you then push him away and let him know that you mean it!!! Failing that arm yourself with a water squirty thing and just bombard him with water....they don't like it!! Failing that.....eat him!!!!!
