My guard goose is embden, The rooster is a barred rock. He has started to attack our legs as well

He is almost 7 months old

Looking for advice, so I had posted a couple weeks ago about how nice and friendly my rooster was, well this past week or so he has been very temperamental. So temperamental yesterday that sometime during the afternoon he had attacked our guard goose and bloodied her poor eye and beak. I got...

I'm jus

Wow!! Thanks so much. Sounds great to me I wasn't even suppose to get a rooster, they were to be all hens. I've been working on holding him and loving on him daily as well so he won't try to be mean to me or my kiddos

I'm a first time chicken momma so it seemed good but I just wanted to make sure that it was " normal"
