My 2 girls (Dark Cornish and OEGB) have been inseparable since the day I brought them home as babies. In fact, the Cornish sleeps with the OEGB tucked under her wing like a baby, and will charge the dog and cat if she feels like they are getting too close. However, while I was outside today, I saw the OEGB stand up tall, fluff out her neck feathers, then bite the Cornish's neck!
Then, after a few What the Heck, "bagaw's" from the Cornish, she puffed up, too. Then, the OEGB acted like she was going to spur her. That made the Cornish jump on the OEGB's back to pin her down. Then the OEGB bit her neck and hung on. Now, the whole time, they are watching me out of the corner of their eyes, and if I turn towards them, they stopped, and acted like nothing was happening. If I stayed sideways and watched out of my side, they would fight.
They are still inseparable. The OEGB freaks out if the Cornish is out of her sight. However, I do not want the Cornish to get hurt. What is causing this and how can I stop it? They don't even fight over food. They are both around 4 months old, but no eggs yet, and I am sure they are both female.
Thanks,
Shelly
