Ok, So I have two 9 month old girls and then I got 3 other chicks that are now 7 months old. One of those turned out to be a rooster. I am moving in the next month and was not able to keep the rooster. Not to mention he was starting to pull the feathers out of my big girls heads trying to mount them. He is a lot smaller than the two older girls. Well I was able to find him a good home and thought they would all be ok with him gone. But I was really wrong. My two youngest who were the most docile and lovable girls, now the one who was the sweetest, bit my lip and made me bleed and wont let me put her anywhere near my face, The other young one is talking up a storm like she is lost with out her rooster. And one of the older girls who was getting the worse of the feather pulling is now pulling out her tail feathers herself... I feel soooo bad.. I was not able to keep him anyway since I am moving but how long will this devastation of my girls last??? Will they ever love me again?? Will they ever be happy or will they hold a grudge???
What did I do to my happy flock....
