Yeah, I know - I'm alpha.

But when I'm not in the field, it's kinda interesting. Hank can chase *anyone* from their feed - except for his lady, Alee. Alee can chase *anyone* from their feed, except her boy-toy, Mac. Mac can chase *anyone* off, except Hank.

Sassy can only chase off Lucas. Lucas can't chase anyone, but he's still pair bonded with Mac, so he doesn't get chased as much as Sass.

*no* one is free of scuffle marks.... I'm not sure if it's best to let them deal or start to separate them out again. Separate sure makes it tougher for me.

So, who *is* the boss, anyway?
