What makes them suddenly turn on each other? I had four courtnix in a fairly large cage, they got along great for several months, cranking out eggs, looked good and healthy and content, and then today I go in to feed them and three of them are beating the crap out of the fourth who looks half-dead, scalped and bleeding. I rescued her and popped her into the spare hamster cage I normally use for transporting birds but she looks pretty bad. None of the birds in the other cages were acting any differently and the room they are kept in is fairly isolated, no one goes in or out, automatic timed lights, no predators, can barely even hear noises from outside.
