She is happy as a clam in the rabbit hutch inside my garage. After the 4 have gone to their roost she is anxious to get into the garage. I open the door and she lets me pick her up to put her in her cozy cage. She settles in right away! I also have found out after letting them free range with me watching that she is the one who starts the fights. She goes after Annie who is the lowest in the pecking order, viciously, and the other 4 come to her rescue like a rooster would do if the hens fight. I'm pretty sure she started the whole battle because each time she is with the others she is warned by them except Annie who is so afraid of her. Don't know why Lacy decided to go after Annie, she always did peck her, but never this bad. I'm sure the rest of them ganged up on Lacy after she went for Annie pecking her pretty bad. I am looking for something I can put in her at night so she can go to bed In her coop, but for now she is happy as can be that I come and put her in her own sleeping cage. I don't think I want to do this from now on, but it's working so I guess I will keep it up unless she changes her behavior towards Annie.
