9Volt's our OEGB couch roo. We've gone through a series of Brahma pullets and he had wonderful relationships with all of them, down to the tidbitting stuff and nighttime snuggles (the last is grown and out with the big girls now). My daughter got 2 Barnevelder chicks 6 weeks ago; one died the second night, leaving Robin (nice ambivalent name, huh? LOL). After a week, we thought it was time for a short intro and 9V hated the newbie from the start, even down to dilophosaurus neck feather flaring. :-o It's been over a month now and he will not tolerate the chick anywhere near him, even trying to peck when they manage a face-to-face. We're all mind-blown. 9V was the best babysitter on the planet; could it be that Robin is a cockerel and 9V knew it when Robin was barely a week out of the egg? :-o
