Careful when the Rhode Island Reds start laying (usually 18 weeks) they are bad tempered!

I've heard this ... it wasn't my experience. I hope OP has my luck!

Watching them the reds are definitely the more aggressive of the bunch.

Was 90 degrees today and supposed to drop to 46, they have the brooder plate and I'll be watch the thermometer, if need be I'll get the heat lamp going. So funny to watch them, especially when tired and they're falling asleep
