Minkey Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Does anyone know the situation with the hens pecking order if there is a cockeral there? Despite having Ernest to keep them in line I have noticed that my 3 pekin girls still seem to be ruled by one of my Buff hens? Would this be the case? She is always the first to chase them all away from food etc where she can & will give them a peck sometimes - is this normal? Ernest just seems to sit back & let it all happen. Thanks, Minkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minkey Posted May 25, 2010 Author Share Posted May 25, 2010 Ah right, I hadn't realised that (am new to all of this!) Am I right in thinking that they need to be over 1 to have "matured" so to speak? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
