[@andreapicci8410]

@@theaverettefix7118 I have a question, but this doesn't maybe depend on the race of the rooster? I think the clear one (the new) is not aggressive, instead the dark one is. I think that also in the opposite situation, that is if the clear one were the rooster of the flock, and the dark one were the new one, the dark would have beaten it even in this case, because it's of a race more aggressive than the other, and doesn't depend whether it's the old or the new one. In your opinion, am I right?

[@elricofarmer1561]

When I added a new rooster, I kept him inside a large portable pen, inside the main pen for 1 week. Then, I introduced him to the group. The roosters still fought for a while, but it was the new Black Copper Maran rooster that instigated the attack and quickly learned that the Langshan Rooster was twice his size! I broke up any fights that seemed serious and by the end of the day the pecking order was established. But, I would never just drop a new bird off and say, figure it out! 😬 I have 3 roosters for 13 hens to cover them during free ranging in our forest farm. We are surrounded by mixed hardwoods and I want to make sure that the hens have protection. I also keep free roaming guinea fowl to use as gate keepers, due to the alertness those birds possess.

If you have enough room for subordinate roosters to hide then they'll set up a hierarchy eventually. Problems occur when they don't have enough room to move away from each other. Then they'll kill each other. Its kind of like betta fish. Put two male bettas in a 5 gallon and they'll kill each other. Put them in a 20 gallon and the weaker one will run and hide.

[@oldguysrock2170]

I had three roosters that were hatched in our own barn. Mix breeds. I had to segregate the roosters during the long Northern Michigan winter from the flock. Only had 20 hens and they were tearing up the hens and egg production slowed way down. They survived the entire winter in the outdoor chicken run that was wrapped in house wrap to keep the wind and snow off of them. They had a heat lamp and heated waterer. They roamed during the day time in the snow keeping to the paths I had for my dogs. One rooster was very fond of me. Always wanted to be held. In the spring, a guy in my church needed roosters for his flock. I gave him two and kept the friendly one. It not two days after the other two roosters were gone, and the friendly one attacked me several times when I went to the barn. He hit my shin so hard, I got a large bump on my shin bone. With a two year old in the house, I could not risk this rooster attacking the kid. The rooster met his maker. I felt bad because he was very friendly with the other two roosters were around. But by himself, he took over. Multiple roosters are the way to go as they keep each other in check.

[@oldguysrock2170]

@Me Of Course : I have had about 7 roosters since I started with chickens. All had different personalities. I had one Bantam while my flock was full size hens. Could never touch that little guy. A hawk got him. I first saw feathers on the ground and there were a lot of hawk feathers on the ground. Must have been a pretty good fight before the hawk got him. Had two Orpington roosters, they were mean but never attacked anyone, but were very aggressive towards the hens to the point of missing feathers, and twice, hens were limping after the the mating thing. The rooster that I kept of the three winter roosters, was very friendly. Always liked being held and would jump into my lap. But he turned into an absolute beast after I gave his two brothers away. The two are doing fine with their new flock. But the best rooster I had was a Road Island Red. He worked, always watching the skies, trusted the dogs and cats, and herded the hens into the barn at dusk, the last one in at night. Being that you and I watch our flocks, we know the personalities of the hens and roosters. Chickens are people too!
