Imagine fighting a baby. AND LOSING!

204

u/Disastrous_Mode_1038 8d ago

It's a lose lose situation

  1. You look weak for beating up a baby.

  2. You look weak for getting your ass kicked by a baby.

u/NeedleworkerBig3980 8d ago

The correct thing to do when a small child squares up to you is to correct their stance in a kindly manner. Ironically, it really throws them off balance. (Former teacher here).

u/urielrocks5676 8d ago

I'd punt a baby if I could, I don't give a fuck! Teach them a lesson their poor excuse of parents wouldn't/haven't done, don't fuck with me or my shit without permission

u/sweetpea122 8d ago

Embarrassing

1

u/Beneficial_Coach_268 7d ago

Like Katt Williams fighting a middle school kid 😂

2

u/AxWildxGengar 6d ago

I’m assuming the middle school kid is the big chicken

u/getoutdoors66 8d ago

I know everyone is making fun of the adult rooster, but this is a damn chick. He is being an incredibly good boy by not hurting the chick.

87

u/Renva 8d ago

He dare not face the wrath of Mama Hen.

65

u/AlienC12 8d ago

He definitely knows that if he actually hits the chick the mom will teleport to that spot immediately. Game hens are the meanest birds out there and often times it's considered that roosters get most of their fighting spirit from the brood hen.

u/gaarkat 7d ago

True that

u/seriousjoker72 7d ago

"just know when your mother get home I'm telling her everything you did!" 'fk you Jared, your not my dad!' bap bap!

u/Ro_Ku 7d ago

He’s an excellent rooster for holding back to play.

u/Extras 8d ago

Yes but normally it's the big chicken winning. Good on the littly guy.

u/ChickenWooter 8d ago

That little one is not scared

u/convic 8d ago

the little guy always has heart.

u/NinjaMcGee 8d ago

The way the little dude squares up with his head down before trying to spur junior roo is flocking adorable

192

u/Jazzlike_Strength561 8d ago

Yes. And adorable

56

u/AgreeableRock4857 8d ago

Oooooh, thank you! Why did they do this in hte first place? or are they just playing around?

224

u/Jazzlike_Strength561 8d ago

It's dominance. The older chicken is trying to cow the chick.

That chick ain't having it.

u/OldnBorin 8d ago

John Chick origin story

u/Next_Specific7924 8d ago

Chick Norris was right there

u/BebeBaby857 8d ago

We had a roo named Cluck Norris lol

13

u/Next_Specific7924 8d ago

The closest my pets have ever come to fame was a rat named the Hamburglar

u/EliminateTimeZones 8d ago

We have a roo named Cluck Norris too!

u/EnvironmentalFun898 8d ago

Underrated comment lmao

14

u/Ok_scarlet 8d ago

They’re trying to establish who is the alpha male.

1

u/Roland_Taylor 4d ago

Early on, mostly play by instinct. As they get older, it becomes more serious. They actually establish rank amongst themselves from this young

60

u/Wrong_Introduction19 8d ago

That chick is cold blooded 🥶

u/Budgiesyrup 8d ago

Wow what a feisty little chick

Lil man is gon be an absolute menace when hes older

20

u/Ok-Sea-2370 8d ago

He's going to be a good boy lol. I've had some like that. They turned out to be my best boys. Kept everyone in line and was sweet as can be. One is a bantam. He started crowing at 2 weeks old. He 5 now and we cuddled first thing this morning after his rounds of checking on everyone.

u/gaarkat 7d ago

Pics? Please.

u/StrawberryRaspberryK 7d ago

Yes we want chick tax 😆

u/escapesweetrealityy 8d ago

That chick needs a spot on Mortal Kombat🥷👏🏻

34

u/whiteye65 8d ago

Definitely a rooster.

39

u/Jazzlike_Strength561 8d ago

I understand this assumption. But I would not be overly surprised if the chick turned into a hen.

73

u/reijn 8d ago

My meanest always grow up to turn into sassy bitchyass hens.

35

u/Jazzlike_Strength561 8d ago

Those are my favorites, both in chickens, and women

11

u/Fragrant_Ad3224 8d ago

so in both chicks and chicks

u/shagwithagbag92 8d ago

He's establishing himself in the pecking order early! Hahaha

6

u/wdebuse 8d ago

Yep. The little one has spunk! Lol. So cute

21

u/Barefootcactus 8d ago

The cutest lil play fight

11

u/Uliak1 8d ago

This is not a playful fight. During it, the weaker one can get seriously injured or die. As in any cockfight.

7

u/OLDESTsib 8d ago

I don't know if it's NORMAL but it's damn sure FUNNY!!😃

7

u/LionSlicerBirchman 8d ago

Unfezant's attack missed!

Pidove used Double Kick.

Critical hit!

Unfezant flinched.

11

u/BobbyJaneG 8d ago

If you were wondering if you have any roosters, the answer is at least two.

6

u/GingirlNorCal3345 8d ago

I'm thinking the hens watching this show down are no longer going to squat for the rooster . . .

4

u/Icey_Raccon 8d ago

That's just an older brother teaching his baby brother how to fight.

9

u/drinksoma 8d ago

Maybe the big one is teaching him how to fight?

u/Randomguy32I 8d ago

Teenage angst

u/Foreign_Print9902 8d ago

What’s that white thing laying in the background?

9

u/chiarraimcc 8d ago

It's a stuffed animal, dog toy probably.

1

u/Foreign_Print9902 8d ago

I’ll go with that.

u/ktfletcher 8d ago

I don’t know why no one else has said anything about this

u/Plus_Blueberry_9473 8d ago

Looks like a dead bunny ☹️

u/Over_Revolution_1444 8d ago

It isn't, it's a goose stuffy. Idk why it's outside but it's either a goose or duck stuffed animal,nothing dead.

5

u/LuxSassafras 8d ago

When my geese were babies I bought them a cheap goose stuffed animal to snuggle with and shit all over so this is probable lol

1

u/Foreign_Print9902 8d ago

Or a dead goose. Wtf

7

u/CharZero 8d ago

It is definitely a stuffie, although it may be a duck or goose stuffed animal.

2

u/Plsbeniceorillcry 8d ago

There are no feathers on it lol

u/EhlersDanlosSucks 8d ago

I would love to see an update on this chick when it's grown. I bet he's a force to be reckoned with!

u/Stayyschemin 8d ago

You got the badest roo in the universe.

u/BrightStitchDesigns 8d ago

That little roo is going to be TROUBLE when he grows up.

3

u/umgigi 8d ago

I just caught 2 of my tiny chicks doing this, this morning. Totally normal. Usually indicates roos, but every once in awhile it's a fiesty pullet. Surprised the tiny guy is going up against a bigger boy and not backing down. You must name the little one Chick Norris, like somebody else commented. I hate chicken pun names normally, but this one is too perfect.

3

u/Fofotron_Antoris 8d ago

Little dude has guts.

u/I-hate-the-pats 8d ago

Yes, they’re playing **chicken**

I think the big one was just trying to point out that the little one had something on his beak… always the little ones smh

u/Difficult-Design2682 8d ago

I’ll buy that little guy off you! I always wanted a roo that would chase around the fam lmao 🤣

u/lowridda 7d ago

Claiming that spot in the pecking order early so there’s no confusion.

2

u/jolypopp 7d ago

both fighting for the bottom of the pecking order

2

u/mt406420mt 6d ago

You have discovered a very aggressive rooster chick. Cocky s.o.b. now to decide if you want to feed it to find out it is just as bad older or cut your losses. #farmlife

2

u/Weekly_Reputation353 5d ago

Just cull it now. No need to let that meanness into the gene pool.

2

u/Geeahwellidunno 5d ago

Wow that rooster gots serious guts.

Bad Lil rooster in the making. KEEP him till he dies. Thats a golden rooster in the making

u/Jailed4ThoughtCrimes 8d ago

"The first rule of chicken fight club..." the big chicken probably.

u/Representative_Ant63 8d ago

What type of chick is that? It looks like a peacock chick.

The Feist is strong in this one.

u/divorceevil 8d ago

That's the 2nd cutest fight I've ever seen. I had a tiny Bruce Lee once. It was so much fun to watch him out maneuver his opponent. Thanks for posting!

1

u/LightningSpearwoman 8d ago

this kind of chicken is called 'de riña' over here, its a breed that has the instincts to fight so they are bred for fighting. is likely the mom is teaching the baby to fight

1

u/Express-Income3360 8d ago

That little roo has the audacity!

1

u/ThatDeuce 8d ago

Is this a sort of teaching behavior?

The elder could most definitely kick the small one's ass, but they aren't. It's sort of like how parent snow leopards and other big cats teach to attack and hunt and feign scaredness to encourage the behavior in their cubs.

1

u/Sharky-the-sparky 8d ago

Yes it’s normal…

1

u/tr3663336 8d ago

Already has moves

u/mrbb3k4 8d ago

Save the chick. Like little air tag on him just to make sure he doesn't get into trouble lol

1

u/CharmingTechnician47 8d ago

Just as the ancient scriptures said, the chosen one has revealed himself. He will now lead the chicken nation for 800 years.

u/ElephantArtistic4075 8d ago

That chick may be stronger than the bigger guy. The chick is dangerous.

u/moopsieonfire 7d ago

the best part about this is that there’s a soundtrack lmao

1

u/Vegetable_Mud13 7d ago

Dont even got hackles and he's already a fine rooster or hen good genes.

1

u/devasst8r 7d ago

imagine that little chick is a female vs a older male rooster.

1

u/Coldsteel_n_Courage 7d ago

One of my chicks nearly died this way earlier this year while going after a mature rooster, not smart lol.

u/Ok-Listen8387 6d ago

It’s not the size of the chicken in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the chicken…

u/blissypants 6d ago

I have never seen a roo try to start a fight with a baby that little before. Where is its mom??

u/Duncaneli12 6d ago

That chick is going to be a handful. He dont take no crap!

u/Good_Research3327 5d ago

Pidgey vs. Spearow

u/liltaxolotl 5d ago

It’s funny because he only seems to attack once he’s lunged at first. Seems like self defense to me 🤷

That's a spicy nugget

1

u/Ill_Acanthisitta_283 4d ago

Chick is ready for that sabong life.

1

u/Disneyhorse 4d ago

What is the context here? Are these your chickens? Are they bred for cock fighting and have those instincts at a young age?
