Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

My email footer reads as such:

Beware: I ride horses, which means I own pitch forks, have the strength to haul hay, and have the guts to scream at a half ton animal after being kicked... You will not be a problem

Such the sweet little guy! Jaffar spent some time with me a bit ago. He just walked right up to me, stared at me “Well, pick me up you dummy!” So I did, and he laid his beak on my shoulder. We cuddled for a while, then he went back to his ladies. I didn’t prompt him with treats or anything.

Oh I hope there a babes can you not check under her?

She hisses, screams, pecks and bites. I'm not going to disturb her until 1. She gets off or 2. I acquire freshly hatched babies to sneak under her or 3. She hits sitting for a full month. I'm not giving her an opportunity to teach the others bad habits. The only time I will mess with her is if she's sitting on the wrong nest (only happened once). She's more aggressive this time, which is good, but there are still things she needs to work on (not letting the others in to lay eggs or picking a smaller nest box so there isn't room).

What's going on?

Ok so what the heck gives??!!

Fluff and Curly were going at it tooth and nail just now

I have seen the hens squabbling and heaven knows when they are broody they are down right evil. But these two have never been fighting together before! In fact they both brooded together.

I broke it up and separated them for minute, Fluffy went back outside and seems ok....though they are cautiously walking around each other....

Could be a potential change in pecking order. Are they close to each other in the order?

What's going on?

She normally doesn’t have any problems, but she was acting slow and lethargic this morning. I found out that she was stopped up on her “south side “ and I cleaned her up, nutridrenched and treated her. She’s better now

I think that we all get backed up once in a while
