[CHICKENS-101] Meanie-Bo-Beanie

 

My chicks are about a week and a half old now, and it looks like at least one of them has decided it's high time pecking order was established.  I have 14 in all, mixed breeds, all pulletts.  They have all been very hand-tame, but now (as of today) whenever someone sticks their hand in the tub, one of my Ameracaunas will come running over to peck aggressively.  My first instinct is to give her a little swat on the back and tell her no.  But could this be harmful?
 
Thanks,
Anne
