So my Buff Orpington hen who is 4 months old is acting very aggressive towards me! Every time I go in the coop she follows me around and pecks me super hard. Last two times these pecks caused me to bleed. I've tried pushing her away and she just runs right back at me. I matter how many times I do it. I've tried holding her down to show her dominance and that doesn't seem to help either. It's so weird because she used to be my friendliest hen, I have pictures of her sitting in my lap! I don't want to do.
For back info I have to older hens who are 6 months old who seem to be in charge, I have two other hens the same age and a rooster the same age. All different breeds.
Any advice on what to do here would be much appreciated!
