Very well thought out & written by an author who has obviously spent a lot of time with his charges.

Thanks Mr Whites.

I've definitely seen a few of these various pecks here. The mama hen/chick peck, the alpha peck & the pick me up peck can all be easily misunderstood if you're not familiar with them.

Thank you for reading the article. I read quite a lot of posts on the forums where posters are concerned about pecking. Often it seems fairly obvious that the pecks are not meant to be aggressive but the response often is. Maybe if people read this they might think before reacting.

Not a trivial article at all. Interesting read, and fascinating that you take the time to really observe behaviors and put them into words for us! :thumbsup
