Jasmine is one of my 13 1/2 week old EEs and she picks on a small little black sexlink and my partridge cochin all the time, doesn't hurt them but chases them around and makes them cry, I know that she is trying to let them know she is dominant over them, but at night when there roosting the two little ones always cuddle up next to her and sometimes she pecks them, and instead of running or trying to get away they try and climb up under her! Also she does that growling/purring to them too at least i think she is doing it for them. I feel really bad for the babies (both are 11 weeks old) and I try and move them away from her and they cry and go straight back to be with her! What in the world is going on? Im totally confused please help me understand! Its driving me nutts.
Thanks Sandy
I also wanted to add that Jasmine has just started to pink up on her nose/comb in the last 2 or 3 days as she really don't have a comb to speak of. And she acts totally hen like, but is there is a possibity that she might be a roo? She was ordered and sent as a pullet? Thanks again Sandy
Ok last Edit, hope i get all the info in here this time, I went and checked her neck and saddle feather, and she doesn't have the pointy feathers in either place, but in the picture because of her pattern it make it kinda look like they are but the feathers are rounded on the ends. Hope I was looking for the right thing! LOL
