I find the most affective way to hold a chicken (hen or rooster) is to put your middle finger in between their legs and use you ring and index finger to hold it. This way it is in its natural roosting position.

∙ 8y agoA rooster can be a pet or a farm animal, in order to keep one you could set up a box which the rooster will most likely stand in the edge make sure to put paper around the area it is around for it to.. tinkle..you can feed vegetables or maize or rice and some fruits there are three particular things it cannot eat: avocado, beans ,potatoes. A rooster sleeps early and awakens early and sings.You can take them for walks and bathe them once every two weeks.Make sure to see if it has any Illness before keeping. 🐓

∙ 14y agoNo. Roosters are not dangerous, just feisty. Most people get a laugh out of the video's of kids being chased around the barnyard by a rowdy rooster who is more than happy to take up the chase, once the offending child is on the receiving end of the feathered terrorist. Roosters in fact are simply doing what nature has programed into them, defending the flock from predators and danger. Handling a rowdy rooster just means standing up to the feisty cockerel and taking control. Once the bird realizes you are the aggressor he will lift his tail feathers and make every attempt to escape Grab him and tuck him under your armpit holding the wings down and you are then in control of the rooster, not the other way around. Spurs are not as dangerous as most people think, while they can scratch a bare leg, the bird must be in the air and both feet off the ground to use them effectively. Once in your arms he may bite and protest but he really can't do much damage. A few quick strokes of the neck feathers and he will calm down. Check out the video in the "related Links" listed below.

∙ 14y agoBasically like you do hens. However, they do not require a special layer diet, laying boxes, or things of the sort. Unless you want to trim their spurs, which you just shave them off with a knife (do not shear them too far down!).
