I have a small flock. 4 hens and two roosters. Luck of the draw I guess. Everyone got along great, even the Roos. One of my Roos (good looking Polish) fell sick, no idea what he had, but we brought him in and nursed him back to health. He was inside for 5 days and I am now bringing him out to free range with the rest of the crew. Day one was bad. Everyone attacked him, even my pacifist, Camila. Today it was just the hens messing with him (albeit less consistently). I can’t let him stay out in the run when I’m not out there out of fear he’ll get beat up. Had to treat a head wound on the poor guy a couple months ago. Are they just asserting a new pecking order or is he no longer welcome?
