Mine was going after the weekolds too. I appreciate her gumption though, but I can't let her injure the others. I just let her out of jail this morning and she promptly went and snuggled in with the rest of the flock. I wll be watching her today though. The little area I cordoned off is working really well for the weeeeee little tiny ones I have when I need to give them a break from being run over. I think I am going to leave it in. I made a roundish little corral in the corner (full width of 1/4 inch hardware wire, about 8 inches high, duct taped the long edges to keep everyone (including myself) from getting poked, and zip tied it to the hardware cloth walls in the corner. This is also keeping them from piling in that corner and the bigger girls like to roost on top of the "wall", the bigger girls often nip in for a little visit with her and then she pokes them and they flutter out. I think that might help her to learn that what she is doing isn't nice, maybe? wishful thinking perhaps. I also put a number of very peckable small stuffed animals in there (shiny buttons and dark sewing against light backrounds), a big marble, and some other "items of interest" to keep them occupied until they are out on the grass with some real work to do. Seems to be entertaining the lot of them.
