She is still a little skitish. She'll be in the cage for a few days until the big chickens get used to her. Betty checked her out to see if she was food, then ignored her. Blue's a little more aggressive. She's more concerned that this one might be competition for food. She's been fluffing her wings and poking Lacey's cage to show her who's boss. Funny since Blue is the yongest, but she's long since taken over as the boss after Moose left. This little girl will likely be a little bigger than Blue once she's full grown so Blue's days might be numbered. Once they relax a bit, Lacey can join the crowd. It'll be a while before she lays any eggs though.
