My chickens are anywhere from 2 months old to 3 months old i believe and some of them can be so mean at times, like just a few minutes ago i was sitting out in my yard watching them and one went up to another chicken and pecked him on the back and the one that got pecked tried to take it out on another chicken by trying to peck him, and just yesterday one chicken put their foot right in the middle of another chickens back and turned its body in a way to where it looked like he was trying to dig its foot in the other ones back on purpose to hurt it, plus their always running into eachother like their trying to pick a fight and they will bump chests and then peck eachother sometimes, they act as if they really cant stand eachother, plus they try and peck humans too. My son and daughter gets pecked once in a while and my son had a chicken peck him on the face then again by the eye on another day and when we try to gather them up in the evening, they try and peck us sometimes, what can i do for their meaness, i feel so bad when i see a chicken bullying another chicken, i feel sorry for that chicken b/c these pecks arent light, their pretty harsh looking pecks. Plus as far as we know their all hens, there actually is one im wondering if its a rooster, but still even the hens can be mean.
