They arn't too bad if they have plenty of space and lots of stuff to peck at to keep their interest away from the others, but they do like to have their way. We have one that will peck the others out of the nest SHE wants. She has always been on the top of the pecking order yet she is very tame.

This is an old picture from 3 years ago. The black Australorp hen in the picture is her best friend. I think they may be conspiring against the red hen behind them, lol
