Well, I Took In Took In A Birchen Cochin Bantam Rooster, And A Standard Black Minorca Roo, And The Owner Told Me That They Would Sometimes Attack Each Other, But I Took Them Anyway, Thinking That It Was A Pecking Order Issue, But When I Put Them In The Coop, The Minorca Practically KILLED The Cochin. So Now The Minorca's In 'Rooster Jail'. I Was Wondering If There's Any Way To Get the Minorca To Be Less Aggressive To The Cochin, As He Leaves All His Other Coop-Mates Alone.

Also, When We Got Them Back, And I Looked In The Box The Minorca Was in, There Were His Sickle Feathers Strewn Across The Bottom, Could This Have Been A Stress Issue, Or Could he Have Been Moulting?

Thanks,
James
