my poor EE pullets are being treated like prostitutes! all 4 of the boys go straight for the 2 EEs like there isn't another hen for miles around. they almost completely ignore the 10 other girls in the yard. i just don't know what to do about it. the EEs had taken to hiding in the coop while everyone else was in the yard so they could find some peace and quite. i've been sticking them in the safe room with my gimpy Wyandotte so they could relax a little, but that isn't a long term solution.
i just don't understand why those two girls are getting all the (unwanted) attention? are they about to start laying my first eggs? is it because their markings (white and gray) stand out more? if this keeps up, i'm going to have two extremely over-fertilized little EEs.
