Listen "Meyer Moment: Social Structure"
Episode Synopsis
Let’s take a Meyer Moment to talk about the social structure of a chicken flock. You’ve heard of the pecking order, but beyond being the top bird or being last on the rung, there is a unique social structure within each and every flock. The social structure is delicate and is ever-changing based on multiple factors. Chickens are social “flock” animals and we recommend a successful flock have at least 3 birds. Having chicken friends doesn’t necessarily mean that the chickens will be “friendly” to each other, as it all depends on their social structure.Important Links: MM027 - Hen PeckingPecking Among Chickens: Causes and SolutionsKeeping Multiple Roosters in a FlockAdding New Chickens to Your Existing Flock
