Dominance in Hens

[DotTheHen]

Well I’m glad it’s nothing I should be worried about! A new cockerel and a new pullet will be added this weekend, so there will probably be lots of fighting once they settle in.

(I’ll be isolating the new dudes until they’re bigger so they don’t get killed)

I would also isolate for the disease factor. You don’t want to introduce any new germs and bacteria to your existing birds until you know for sure the ones that you are bringing in are all OK.

I’ll be doing that as well! All of my birds are from the same breeder, but I’d rather be safe than sorry! Thanks!
