I am getting to see that! I have 2 hens and a drake; "Mama" is busy taking care of the 5 youngsters (born June 29), and when auntie and dad come around, look out! Mama runs them off, and has even gotten into physical fights with "Bull", my other hen. When Bull was a mom, she was just as protective, and frequently ran dad and auntie (Mama) off. Having raised my three from the age of 2 months, it's awesome watching them grow and protect their young ones.
