Yesterday I took the big cage out of the chickenhouse. I left it in there with the door propped mostly closed so the pullets could get to their own chick food without being hassled by hens, lest the hens eat it all themselves or chase the pullets away from the main feeder…
…which they’re mostly not doing. In fact the hens are taking this whole invasion thing quite phlegmatically, for Rhode Island Reds. RIR extraflock – and too often interflock – relations often involve a thick slice of psychotic violence.
They’re remaining two distinct groups, but the groups are getting along remarkably well compared to some earlier attempts at integration.
This just in: The pullets have hired Michael Avanatti and filed a class action suit against the hens, something about inappropriate pecking. Kids today…
Won’t work. The RIR hens are also female. And one cannot successfully sue lesbians.

LMAO!
Them lebanese are also pullets, Joel. And they have much higher standing on the Preferred Species ladder than those white bimbos. Or even their black ho sista…

Hmm, I wonder what chicken poop does to electrical boxes? Maybe Joel can do a long term test report in a few months.
😀 The results are in! Nothing.
