How do I stop one chick from bullying another???????

[chickenlady456]

I only have a total of two chickens that I got last week. However one seems to be very authoritive and is bullying the other by constantly jumping up and pecking him on top of the head and picking him all over causing him to lose his feathers. I fear it wont be with us much longer if this continues Any suggestions????????

With just 2 the possibility of seperating the aggressor is slim, as they do need a companion. I suggest visiting a pet store and buying some anti peck spray for use on caged birds. It goes on easily and is colorless and doesn`t make a mess. I got some a few years back and it works very well. Tastes like sour apples, according to the lable. Smells like it too. Works for me and a little goes a long way.........Pop
