Glad you joined us!

Welcome to BYC! Glad you decided to join our flock. My wife and I were both raised in the great state of Texas only about an hour from you (Blue Ridge for her, Greenville for me). I assume that Henna is the one pictured in your avatar. She's a beautiful Black Sex Link (Black Star). I've raised Black Sex Links (Black Stars) for years and they are wonderful, egg laying machines. Mine have usually been very friendly, but it's always possible to get an aggressive one. If handling Henna a lot doesn't calm her down, I would get some pinless peepers for her to curb her aggressiveness. They will allow her to feed and drink using her peripheral vision, but she will not be able to see and peck at anything directly in front of her. A lot of our members have used pinless peepers with very effective results. If you are not familiar with them, you can see them at https://www.mcmurrayhatchery.com/pinless_peepers.html. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck with Henna.
