Not long ago me and my husband went to a small animal auction and happend to get a bantum rooster real cheap... I wanted to get him a couple female buddies so i could gather and hatch the eggs.. to our luck my husband was build a barn for this guy who happened to raise birds for a living.. for my husband helping he gave us two hen.. i least i think ones a hen... instantly one of the bantums which i know is hen instantly pair with my bantum rooster.the other bantum is still young and i cant tell if its hen or roo... i have to put her in a seperate pen cuz if i dont the hen becomes aggerressive and attacks the younger one over and over again. i have to seperate them by blocking their veiw of each other. i decided to take the roo out and put it in with the younger one and see what he does he just struts for the younger one and the hen goes crazy til i take the roo out and put him back with her.. im planning on keeping some of my bantum chicks so i can raise more and have more eggs but i dont want my hen to attack all of them. what do i do?
