This was from yesterday:
Bella's boy got into another fight today! This time with Bella's enemy and his biological mother! She's moulting (thats why she doesn't look too healthy) so I'm glad she won because I don't want her getting stressed during it. They were fighting a minute but most of it was a stare off, he backed down and she chased him off in the end. George was trying to get involved but I stopped him as I like to be there when they fight incase anyone gets hurt.

So rir cockerel from the woods escaped out of his shed at some point this morning. Some how he ended up in the woods without coming face to face with any of the hens or cockerels. He ended up chasing my Welsummer hen to mate when she went in the woods and she took him into the feed pen where he met everyone. He only got into one fight and that was with one of the primary hens and she won so it was a bit embarrassing for him! Him and George (the big cockerel) didn't scrap and George hasn't attacked him either. I was bedding down cleaning his she's out and he was sitting scratching next to me and George must have been coming towards him so he ran towards me and I nearly had a heart attack thinking he was running to attack me because I was level with him haha. Bella's boy decided to start on him but then got too scared to fight so rir boy is following him and Bella about because Bella's boy keeps staying in a fighting position as he walks. Bella gets scared and she hit her foot trying to get out of it and is limping again now! See her boy is bringing her more trouble again! Anyways, went a lot better then I thought so glad he got out!

The chicken chaos seems to have a way of working itself out... at least for now... aside from Bella's limp which will also work itself out. The chickens have a lot of room to spread out fortunately. If rir boy wants to avoid trouble he hopefully can. But what I can't figure out is, if rir boy wants to avoid trouble, why is he following Bella's boy whose middle name could be "Trouble."
