There’s 9 pullets and 2 stags in this coop. 1 other stag is in the trees and there were 2 more for a total of 14. In not sure if the other two were pullets or stags but I’ve got a ton of of females. Lol

Had to get my youngest black/DMM out of the tree two nights in a row.

I may hit you up for a another Black hen/pullet for next season if you have plenty to spare we shall see.

Hard to know for sure considering my boss never kept records on what she bought and sold. I have another mixed Bantam hen that the black hen absolutely hates.

Just because a bird is aggressive to another means absolutely nothing. I’ve had a laying hen damn near kill a salmon faverolle rooster. Means absolutely nothing.

I do understand that. It’s a different kind of aggression that I’m seeing. She will drop her wing and shuffle around the other hen. My Frizzle Bantam hen is pretty aggressive and I’m pretty certain she has no Game blood in her.

Follow up question: Can a bird be a Gamefowl without being aggressive?

Do a YouTube search for gamefowl and watch some videos.

Hens in my opinion don't have to show agression to throw game male offspring, but a male shouldn't give an inch.

I have a double spurred hen that’s probably one of the most aggressive hens I’ve ever seen. I culled all the roosters of the same family because they weren’t worth feeding.

I’m watching one about how to handle a man fighter. Very interesting. Man also says that baby oil calms them down.

Did you really just say “you’re frizzle bantam hen is pretty aggressive?” Generally all chickens are somewhat aggressive and show dominance over other birds.

That isn’t what I’m talking about. Forget it.
