After a hawk attack I’ve had to maintain separate coops. I’ve only been able to integrate two of my original surviving birds with the 9 5 month old new pullets. There are two hens (one 8 months and one 19 months) that are obscenely aggressive with the others. I’ve had them separate for at least two to three weeks.
Today, the most aggressive of the two, the 8 month old welsummer, is crowing.
From the day of the attack, she has never laid an egg again. Every other chicken that is old enough has resumed laying. This hen had laid at least 15 eggs before the attack, so I know she is a hen....
Is there any way to encoirage her to not crow?
