Jackson: Yes, but our rooster is not very aggressive and there are no obvious injuries. Any other ideas? -J


Ask Duncan on the Irish forums. He was telling us the other day of his wonderful farm menagerie.

I'm sure he could possibly help you (sure...possibly...hmmmm..doesn't sound very sure...confused )

readyornot0: erm as there is a cock running with the hens there will be no pecking order no need for one as all the girls have a man, unlikley being egg bound will cause a limp as eggs tend to come out of the arses not the legses.


I'm not sure about that. I always had a rooster with my hens and the hens still developed a distinct pecking order.

Their roost location (proximity to the rooster) reflected that order.

Strangely enough the hen at the very bottom of the pecking order turned out to be the best mother, avoiding hen "society" and teaching her chicks to find food for themselves in the fields rather than just hanging around the chicken house eating from feeders.

She didn't get to the other side.
