I purchased 4 baby chicks yesterday to add to my small backyard flock. Had 8 laying hens until last weekend when 2 disappeared. Still shedding tears over that so be easy with me. I bought 1 of each--barred rock, cuckoo maran, buff orp, and Americauna. The Americauna keeps trying to peck the Buff Orp's eyes. What the heck? Doesn't bother the other two. I have read conflicting reports on the temperament of Americaunas, but never anticipated this the first night I have them. Any way to make her stop? What should I do? Please advise me experienced chicken keepers...Liz Newman, Whitesboro, TX
