Today I picked up 2 almost full grown pullets. 1 Australorp and 1 Araucana. Neither have had their beaks clipped. I added them to Rosie (my ISA Brown with a clipped beak) and she is running rough-shod over both of them, but particularly the Araucana (who is a bit younger).
Do I just leave them to it to figure out what's what? Is there much chance that Rosie could do damage to the new girls? Is it better that they are free in the run, or would it be better to shut them up in the henhouse where it would be dark?
And here I was worried that Rosie might be the one who would be bullied.
