My girls are 16 weeks old. I have sex links and white leghorns. The first leghorn to grow a large comb became nasty and the boss for a while. She hasn't laid yet and has become a little nicer now. Second leghorn to grow a large comb became nasty too. Now she seems to be head hen. They run after the others and give a little peck? Is this normal behavior? Are they like women with PMS? Two of my sex links started laying and are still as sweet as ever. Is this a breed issue? Hormones? Typical women? I would love some answers from all of you veteran chicken owners. Thanks.
