Yep. If he attacks you, just put your hand on his back with his head between your fingers and force his head to the ground.

i think it is working so far he will stop attacking me for a we bit after i pin him so...yay

So it was supposed to be a standard Cochin and it is a Cochin Bantam? Cochin and Pekin are the same thing.

That's what I thought but even for such a tiny breed her growth is so slow I feel... at 4 weeks should she be bigger than like the palm of my hand? Thanks in advance

(PS. I have been supplementing with vitamins eggs, even treated with corid... very aware of FTT/coccidiosis possibility, just trying to judge her prognosis)

Post some pictures.... yes at 4 weeks they should be a reasonable sized fluff ball

Are you sure it's 4 weeks old? Do you have another chick to compare it to?
