This DMM pullet was done at 12days had I not caught her in the acts she would have killed them all. Age has a lot to do with it so I'll give her another chance next season.
All the free range hens here don't seem to mind the chicks much they get a peck here and there occasionally when one try to buck up. Last year I had a hen kill two of her own pullets she had started laying again but covering the eggs with straw scratching.
Actually had two momma's get into it early today still pecking each other an totally exhausted but no quit both are just peachy this evening.
