Hens fighting each other

[BlueEggsAndHens]

Being raised together really has little influence on chickens. What really has a lot of influence is space and how that space is set up. I would immediately let them out and into the run during the day time.

Add clutter to the run, things they can get under or on top of, roosts, ladders, saw horses, pallets up on blocks, leaned agains a wall. Don't make anything they can get trapped in. A less aggressive bird needs to be able to get out of sight and out of mind.

Do set up another pen, there is a good chance you should separate your cockerel until the pullets come into lay. Somewhere around 12-20 weeks, cockerels can get very hard on pullets, who really are not ready for a cockerel or rooster until they are laying.
