The Mcconnochies Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Hi all, recently introduced 2 new chooks after the Evil Fox took a couple last year. I just noticed that one of the new chooks is being pecked on the rear by the other of the new chooks...so much so that the feathers are begining to look a bit bedraggled. Any advice?

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I have exactly the same problem, at least I thinks that's the explanation for the tatty feathers on one of my new girls . It's the other new girl that's doing it though . I've ordered some Nettex Anti-Peck Spray to see if that will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear that covering (spraying, not showering) all of them in vinegar may do they trick...anyone tried this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillybettybabs Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I've been using Johnsons anti-pek with great results, Introducing three youngsters with the evil Fran and it was a worry, but i have been spraying them every morning and she has chased but left them alone. She is so evil she pecks me and the dogs so three youngsters need all the help they can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
