    Is this bullying and if so, how do I stop it?

    Absolutely! I just got a lesson on that one. My BR got chewed to high heaven by my aunties little 1yo dog. This is 3+ weeks into it and the least gross photo I have. It was bad. This is her a few days ago marking a little more than 5 weeks.

    I noticed you have a nice big run. Did we establish the OPs coop and runs size? Is that an issue? I know you talked about adding feed and waters to keep the gals from getting jumped. I had a BR named Randy too. He was quite the guy, quite the ladies man too but got rehomed to more space with his...

    Yeah, I hear ya, roosters are lovely to have around unless they are bad. A good roo is fabulous and I don't blame you. It is my bad for thinking you only had 2 hens- I did not comprehend the whole picture of what you were saying. Is he a young guy? If he has other girls a good saddle may do the...

    Not too pricey and ordering from Etsy is always a pleasure! Think they averaged out to $6 each? I ordered a few at the time. These have a sliding elastic so I can make one side big as I secure it around 1 wing and then the next. Nice design.

    It will take her about 2-3 weeks to grow back her feathers. I used periodically as a hen ebbs and flows from the favorite. Also... it is Spring... and that will play into things. I did not see your ration of hens, sorry, thought it was a 2-1 thing. No antibiotics. Try Neosporin w/o the pain...

    Hi! Sorry about your troubles. Great job rehoming the 3 boys but your hen/roo ratio is still brutal. There are a few things you can do; 1) get more hens- like 5-7 more. 2) saddles to protect your girls but it wont keep them from being over mated and they will still be terrorized by your amorous...
