My hen thinks she is a rooster

[Janice Fields]

My guess is that she has decided you are a part of the pecking order, and she is above you. I would bring out a racquet or large stick and push her away from you when she attacks, and just let her know she is not going to get away with it. The idea is to show your dominance, not to hurt her.

I am on my way to run now. First pretty day in a while. Give her an opportunity to try her stuff. As Barney Fife said, " I gotta nip it, nip it in the bud".
Thanks

Are you sure she's not broody? Is she still laying, does she spend a lot of time in the nest box, or does she make weird screaming sounds?

We have somewhere north of 50 hens and three roosters and NONE have been aggressive to us. Of course, I play The Distillers, Bikini Kill, Interrupters, The Muffs, Tat, etc. when out with them so I'm hanging it 100% on the John Denver thing.

You're obviously provoking them.

J/K; watch Orange is the New Black. Nature abhors a vacuum- even without a rooster, someone is gonna be the boss.
