It's about time they can tell jay z and Beyoncé to stick it. Ha

Just had a big rally yesterday here in Philadelphia. Bruce Springsteen and all the the other hippies. Haha all for nothing. Now it's time to see if all the Hollywood types pack their sh*t and get to steppin.

I have have been rearing four broods in rapid succession using pens that are up and off the ground. Not my usual approach for games, especially when under hen. Three of those broods have now gone through that fighting phase that often occurs around 4 weeks post-hatch. It is easy to parse out the voice change in chicks before battle royal commences. Now I am pretty sure some changes in the hen's voice at the same time. Her clucking less robust, almost muffled. To stop the whole mess all you got to do is put a cock nearby.

This crap can happen whether hen present or not. Same hen can have one brood that is good then another that gives me trouble. What is causing the variation? I control from genetics on dam and sire side.

California passed the most ridiculous gun control laws... Background check for ammo... how does that even work?

Maybe not a genetics issue. I would think their living/environment situation would be the variable.

How is the ratio to stags/pullets? Do battle royal broods often have more or less stags?
Perhaps competition for food or mother's shelter turns on instinct to dominate siblings? Maybe weather patterns can affect the need for those two things.

or possibly moon signs????

More data needed to determine effects of brood size all though I have seen it with all sizes. Weather does not appear to be important. Nutrition very good.

lol just have to help with the wall.

I'm playing Havoc! Been a US citizen since April 24, 2007! Hahahaha the disappointment when you people find out there will be no wall will be sweet. Trump literally went to Mexico and Told Peña Nieto that there won't be a wall, he's only trying to rally support. Hillary would've deported more illegals, and continued what Obama started. Republicans at their core know we need Mexicans.

Well it's a rainy day here in Texas and I hope you all have a good one.
