HI, I am new to chickens I have only had them about 1 month. I have 1 rooster and 9 hens. all my hens hate my rooster. all of them scream when he climbs on which I have pretty much gotten use to. but I have one hen that hides under anything she can to get away from him. either he is chasing her into hiding or she darts when she sees him, im not sure. just wondering if this is normal. they have had a rough time so far. 3 got eat by a possum, 2 got sick and died, and my beagle has eat 2. I really want this to work out and I want them happy. oh and NO ONE is laying eggs. I was getting 1 a day from all hens. for the last 2 weeks I get 0.?????
