#1 may see #2 as the more dominate male. #2 is mating. #1 is staying out of his way.
Sometimes a less dominate male does not crow, tidbit, etc because of a more dominate male being around.
A week is not very long. He made need a couple weeks to get his confidence with mature hens.

Don't blame you under the circumstances.
I also have chronic back problems so I don't mind hiring the job done when necessary. Back pain is a tough thing to deal with. Hope your hubby recovers quickly!
Yes! Always read owners manuals. Some are available online even for older products.
Doing a full toilet replacement is not difficult but you must also replace the seal that attaches the fixture to the floor. If you don't get a good seal it will leak. Watch the plumber if you can. You can...
Newer dishwashers have a filter inside under the bottom sprayer arm. A small trap door is opened and the filter inside is easily removed. You have to clean it regularly because these models recycle water to save on water usage while washing. They also do not have blades to chew up food...
I love my dishwasher. I run it at least every other day. It gets lots of use during canning season.
Previously I had a basic simple model. It worked just fine for 25 years.
A few years ago it became leaky so I replaced it with a Bosch. It is very frugal with water usage. The eco cycle...
Hope your anniversary is special no matter what you two decide to do. 50 years is something to celebrate.
Read all the previous posts. Glad you were able to find someone willing to take Nathaniel. He will get a second chance and you don't have to deal with him anymore.
We just celebrated...
I wonder if this is because of the Legbar in her heritage?
I have one Easter egger/Cream Legbar mix. She is about 9 yrs old now. Never laid an egg in winter, not even her first year. Laid well the rest of the year.
I have had over a dozen Cream Legbars over the years. None of these laid...
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Had a cold rain off and on yesterday. We needed the rain.
So far we've had several frosts but I've not had to cover anything. One cabbage had a slight purple cast to the top of the head from frost but no real damage.
I've now harvested all...
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Looks like Debbie is starting to investigate. She is a beautiful girl. Caleb certainly looks interested too!
One of the EE pullets I've been waiting to lay gave me this green egg on Thanksgiving day! I have 3 green eggs now. I have 6 EE pullets. I...
I was meaning to do a follow up post after we had some to eat. Sorry, I forgot!
I had the sweet potatoes spread out in pans in the greenhouse about a week. Weather was warm 75-80f during the day but starting to cool 55-60f at night. The humidity had backed off as well. The SP were not...
Finally finished mulching the strawberries. I weeded out the main garden.
The mustard had filled back in from my last picking.
I turned on my radio, sat on a milk crate and worked my way down the row until I had 2 big bag fulls. One went to my aunt. I saw no bugs!!! Yay!
I also picked...
Don't they love some greens!
I gave my flock some collard leaves this weekend. They met me at the gate and helped me pull them out of the bucket. Guess I just was not getting them out fast enough. 🤣
I know you are excited about Caleb! Such a cute pup! :love Congratulations!
I found a...
