Reply #10: Does the oldest still peck the others? [View All]

I haven't seen any severe pecking attacks since they were really young (lol, yes, a whole 3 weeks ago).

I would think such a pecking would result in serious injury now. Earlier today, the three were alone just laying around, one in the center and two flanking him/her (I can't tell them apart anymore). The two each had a foot extending into the area where the center one was, and periodically he would peck at the foot, but only gently, almost like tickling. The foot would flinch a little, just to note that they felt it, but I remember early on when E1 was savagly attacking the foot of a dead badger! But he somehow knew not to do the same to his siblings feet.

Maybe they mellow as they age?
