My 2 week old EE rooster(I think), is trying to MATE MY HAND!! I get them out everyday and play with them, and he has started jumping in my hand, squats and spreads out lowering himself, and will rock back and forth(the way they will try to balance on the hen). He will clamp down on my finger with his beak, the same way the male will bite the hens neck during mating. Is this normal for chicks that young?!! Does this mean he is already trying to show dominance over me? Has anyone ever had this happen and did yours turn out to be very aggressive? It's just him and 1 other chick in the brooder, and he's always trying to fight the other. It's really bad!!
