that's why I don't bother with roosters anymore. My hens are much happier
without a rooster. I hated listening to the hens screaming, trying to get
away, having their feathers pulled out etc. It won't pass, the roosters
will keep it up, never seem to get tired of it either. I am sure there are
a few nice roosters out there, I haven't met one yet.
