One of the pullets living inside the house at night - Beth BR - challenges  my cat Lizbeth with raised hackles!
And, as a matter of fact, so does Belinda BR, who is a regular "coop chicken" but has recently started sneaking inside to lay her egg on the incubator table, snuck tucked behind the active Brinsea.
Also, Punkin runs at the cat and my oldest dachshund.  Both look distressed and turn tail.  She doesn't pull that with the OTHER dog, Dooley, He Who Protects The House From Chickens Getting Inside.
Not cockerels, in case I rambled so much I lost the point ....
