First of all my buff orpington just layed her first egg this morning!!!! woohoo our first home grown egg EVER!! lol
anyways....we recently discovered that our white silkie hen was in fact a rooster do to its cockadoodling. He,within the last week has biten me( drawn blood) and gets on top and bites our leghorn hen. She's the only 1 he does it to. i also find him pecking the others heads, i assume to let them know he's boss but attacking the leghorn is worrying me.
Would being sprayed with a spray bottle work with him? or just keep pushing him off when i see him doing it?
Thanks in advance for your help
