chickens are very competitive... there is a coop around the corner from me where there is like 10 birds and three of them are all henpecked, and i wonder whether there's too many in one patch... and further up the road there's a bigger enclosure with about 15 but those ones all seem to be fine, so i think possibly the henpecked ones maybe are not getting fed enough? never kept chickens, i'm interested to know what people who do say about keeping them happy
