Greetings! First time poster here, first time New Hampshire owner 
I'm glad to be among chicken peeps, thanks for having me! Anyway, I have an existing adult LO flock and I've started a new laying flock with Cream Legbars, Golden Buff and this mysterious New Hampshire chick who is bossy-pants central! And I can't figure it out! They're all 10 weeks old. He/she has been particularly nasty to one of my cream legbars and has escalated this week to jumping on and pecking her head and pulling her feathers like they're old enemies. A little eggcessive, ya think? He/she seems to leave the others alone except for little pecking order stuff, it's all good and I know its prime time for that at 10 weeks. Bossy-pants is fine with me, doesn't love me, doesn't hate me.
And so... I'm wondering... if I might just have a Roozilla rather than a Henzilla? It might explain what I'm not understanding. I'd sure appreciate your feedback! Pullet or cockerell?
