I have a 1 year old Sussex. She randomly began attacking my 1 year old Polish, and pecked her head bald. So lately, I have kept the Sussex free ranging in the backyard while the Polish is safe inside the chicken run.
My Sussex has never been aggressive to me before, and this past week she has begun to aggressively attack me! She pecks and flys at me, fluffs her feathers, and acts very territorial. Why is my chicken turning against me?!? Is it because she feels she "owns" the backyard now? She does not attack my husband, and she does not attack me when my husband is around.
I don't know what to do. Is this a phase? I can't have her attacking both me and my little Polish. :-(
