Widhood Question

[andyyy]

Today cleaning the widohood cocks out while they was still in the hut there was two 2013 cocks fighting on the floor, I split them up with my hand and then one came over to my hand attacking my hand the same way he was attacking the other cock, when i had finished cleaning them out i let them all out for a bath, and i did seem to nice how aggressive they was. Is this normal??

opinions please.

good observation Andy . the bird shows character and given you a clue for next season "how to motivate him" .

would you say it was normal though Andy? i have wondered if they are getting fed to much and have to much energy or something daft like that

the answer to normal is YES and No . families differ so much in character ,and individual birds more so . it could well be down to "other factors" like feeding , yet , the only example i can give is .... i have had birds from Wiley (on site) and his were aggresive, my own cousin ,who,s birds will fight you in the box only.and local Scottish birds that are generally quiet .my own family are somewhere in-between . all fed the same , but keep there own family traits ?

that's answered my question Andy thank you, i think 90% of my birds are aggressive i have had a few comments up at the club house about it, Asking if i train them to be so aggressive. the other 10% are rolland jannsen and they are too tame

Thank you (:

whats the old saying ,,, "a problem shared is a problem halved" eh

[just ask me]

i love birds like that and have breed around birds that have this aggression even my hens act like this

 

 

i find they can be a right pain when introducing new birds into the loft etc but are very protective of there box and need very little motivation what so ever as they motivate themselves as there so protective of there box

 

 

i find this aggression comes from the dam most of the time

If those two cocks hate each other try and make a point of not putting them in the same crate when training or racing. The last thing you want is for them to being fighting and waisting energy.
