Anyone want to take my 9-month-old RIR rooster and 9-month-old EE? She lays 6 eggs a week. I would like to see them got a good home where they can stay together since the EE is terribly attached to her "hubby". I only want to get rid of them because she is the alpha female, and when the rooster mounts one of my other, smaller 3 EE, she comes over and pecks the heck out of my poor girls. Since she's an EE, I doubt she would continue this kind of behavior if integrated into a flock with larger hen breeds. Aside from being rather horny, the rooster is very friendly and a gentleman and defender of his ladies. Contact me if interested.

If you like your hen and would like to keep her, you can try to reset the pecking order by separating her for a couple of weeks and then re-integrating her into the flock. Often times another hen will fill that top spot and it may resolve your problem.

Can you place some kind of netting right be that can catch them in case they fall out?

Maybe. I was thinking like a wooden ramp... she is under the house, right above the outside waterhose. Maybe like a coop type ramp? Gonna have to figure out something. Last year, she put out two batches of babies. After a rain storm, the only reason I knew she hadnt been taken by those fox attacks, was we saw 3 dead babies on the edge under the house who had fallen out and drowned plus two had broken legs. She definitely finds a way to brood where she wants, just the worst ones! But she pecks her own size holes so bigger hens can't get in there which is good.
 
That's what my broilers leg did about 2 days after he got under the water/feeder container it swelled and by the fourth day - after soaking with epsom salt for 2 days twice a day he passed. I hope yours gets better.
