Up close and personal

The first minute of today's video is through the acrylic front of the brooder and at eye level for the ladies. It's amazing how many more will approach us after just feeding them treats by hand.

We also appear to have a bully of sorts. Mothra, one of the Brahmas, has been pecking at the others the last few days. She's the center of attention at 0:10 and 2:20 in the timeline. She can be seen pecking Libby in the latter segment. Although most of the others hold their own against her there is a Lavender Orpington and a Barnevelder that are looking a bit bare in spots. :-(
