I am the current owner of two hens about 9 months old. Recently, one of my hens required surgery for a crop impaction. Due to this, she has needed to stay inside for about a month. During that time, she was reintroduced to the other hen multiple times, and would constantly growl at her and try to peck her whenever she got the chance, forcing them to be separated again. The other hen seems to take it, and is not aggressive nor controlling of food or anything towards her. My aggressive hen made a full recovery, but I'm worried if I leave them both outside together again they will hurt each other. They are both Rhode Island Reds, and live in a space about 2m across and 1 m width. How can I stop this aggressive behaviour before one gets hurt?
