I put my EE bully in jail for relentlessly going after an ex-broody. Did I do the right thing?

I haven’t read through this thread, but just by reading the title, I’d say probably yes, you did the right thing.

Thank you, Peeps61, for the excellent advice! Everyone is getting along great, no more stress in the flock!

I notice that the offending posts have been removed. Thanks Admin team for keeping it nice.

Wait, what? Who said anything about starving the bully. Her post said there was food and water in jail. My Black Australorp was in jail (with food, water, a mini coop and tiny pen) for a couple days to stop feather pecking. Let her back out with the flock and things seem better.

Oh... it appears I missed some deleted posts. Sorry for being late to the conversation.

There was a rather offensive poster on here last night who was throwing out some rather crazy accusations to the OP on this thread. I notice that his posts and our responses have been removed, keeping the thread to it's intended purpose. I'm glad - good work on the part of the web administrators.
