My two cockerels are 7 weeks old, both have started crowing, and they have always picked on each other. One is significantly smaller and they always start little fights. Just yesterday, our cochin batman (bigger) pecked the other one (small) and he started bleeding. Now the cochin runs at him and they fight like that. I have to quickly stop the fights before to other gets hurt even more. The cochin has even tried hurting a couple pullets . We separated him in a separate place but I want to know what to do. It can't stay like this forever. I know that this is part of the pecking order and they are around that age but I don't want to let any of them to get hurt anymore. Sometimes we let the cochin go with just the girls and he does good, we just keep an eye on him. Thanks!
