black chickens

[Reba7117]

I have a maran mix and a silver laced mix that seem to be more aggressive to the new black chickens that we got. It that a normal behavior? Are they more aggressive toward the darker breeds? I'm new to raising chicken so not sure what is considered normal behavior.

How did you integrate the new chickens to your pre-existing flock? Sometimes there can be 'racist' chickens so to say but I feel like this is more of an issue with a dominant hen bullying a new hen/pullet

Lol Ive posted on here before that I swear my chickens are racist. I have 2 white ones that get segregated from all the others I personally do believe they care, but as long as they’re coexisting without hurting each other....what can ya do

Not likely, some are more aggressive to any new birds, no matter what color they are.
