Hens bullying Cockrel..?

[Clucking_Caramel]

I hatched two eggs over the spring (And bought six girls). We got one girl and one boy. Recently he started tidbitting, and ALL the older hens would go out of their way to peck him. He would just be standing there, doing nothing, and someone would lower their head and chase him. I was holding him today and a hen walked onto my lap; she pecked him in the head and then on his leg. His peers harass him sometimes with pecks, but not as bad as the older gals.

It's perfectly normal behaviour. With age, and a little more "skill" he will win over the hens and be considered a cock bird worthy of the whole flock.
