I have Four 3-week old chicks: Barred, Orpy, RIR, and the Leghorn.
The Leghorn, I think, is the pariah in the group: she is constantly being chased by the RIR and the Barred, she is the only chick that scratches the bottom of the brooder, she is the only chick that attempts to scratch from the feeder, to top it off, she pecks every **** thing she sees.
The pecking usually attracts the others, but when they realize that she's pecking at the wall, for no reason, they walk away (until they're attention span runs its limit and they thing she's pecking something new.)
I realize they are chickens and are prone to do bird-like things, but I'm pretty sure this leghorn is mentally handicapped.
The water would be shaving and food free if not for the leghorn, and there would be less food on the floor if it weren't for her.
