I have two Australian shepards. Great guard dogs and farm dogs. Just watch for strangers since they protect the children and the house to the enth degree. I love them just as much!!!
I have the same problem. Those darn sparrow. My mother suggested that I might put up some aluminum foil that was the old school way. So Im going to try that. Just hang some long strips on the coop and the run. I dont know what else to try!!! So Im going to give it a shot.
I put the babies in with the older ones today. No problems so far. Thanks for the advise. Just checked on them a minute ago and the newbes are on the top roost and the others on the bottom no pecking at this point.
Thanks Again for the advice.
