Strange thing happened!
I went to the feed store and bought a red light and a big pack of wood shavings. When I got home the pecking had reduced some but one was definately being a menace.
I changed the clear bulb to the red one and all hell broke loose!
They alll freaked and ran away from it, then after huddling as far as possible from the light they all started attacking each other!
They were peeping loudly and the two Bards were grabbing the other chicks eyes and dragging them, it was horrible!
I turned off the light and they all froze. I put the clear light back in and they all went running for the light.
It was amazing!
I added a good inch or two of shavings and they ALL have been calm and content ever since.
I have no idea what happened or what that was all about!
