I have been having issues with 2 of my hens getting along for the past month.
Had some discussion on a previous post. My coop and run meet the needed space required per bird. I recently added additional roost space at the recommendation of some folks here.
All my other hens get along swimmingly, no issues. I just have one EE that particularly bullies my one BO. It’s just between these two.
I have 6 hens, 2 nesting boxes. Today I was in the coop both nests were occupied. My BO was in one of them. The EE jumped up in my presence, and started to aggressively pluck at the head feathers of the BO who was
in the box.
Is this a indicator I need more next boxes? I thought 1 box per 3 birds was plenty?
