Hi there.
I’ve been having a problem with bullying for a long time now. I’ve made multiple threads about it, but I still don’t know what to do. We have enough space by the guidelines and a bit more in the run. The bullying is mainly one hen going after a younger hen. I’ve tried separating the mean hen and that did nothing. I’ve tried pinless peepers, but nothing seems to be working. I was wondering if I should rehome the bully or the bullied? Or should I not rehome any at all? I’m Kind of lost and I don’t know what to do. The bully is a Golden, and the bullied is a Salmon favorelle. Thanks.
Also, we have five hens in total four of them are around two years old and the one who is being bullied is almost a year old. We had two chicks, but one got taken by a raccoon. That’s why we only have one now.
