    Baby Chicks getting eyes pecked by bully

    Baby Chicks getting eyes pecked by bully

    Thank you for this thread! I have an eyeball pecking chick. She/he is awful (the two welsummer chicks I got were straight run). It's name was Lollipop, but hubby renamed her 'Hen'nible Lector. We cannot have her with the other chicks as she instantly tilts her head and starts going for...
