Tie his legs about 2 inches apart and let him get the hell knocked out of him for about a week...

Yes he will, and he will probably want to stay there after a day or so. The hen may have to take his shift the first day. He may break the eggs depending on how careful he is..You are already losing eggs due to his tough guy BS - so wiegh your advantage.

This works well, i use two snap bands and tie them together with sewing thred about an inch and a half apart with about four /five strands of thred, The egges should not be a problem, at least they havn't for me.

Its just best if you do what lipper says that works well let him get his but worked by the other cocks for a couple days that works perfect and you wont have to worry about him going in to other nests I use to do this when I bred open loft and it worked fine good luck jnyce.Edgar
