Speedy vs Izzy

Speedy likes to think she's queen of the ducks. As long as there are female ducks around, she'll have a go at them. All female ducks have been scared of her, I think I watched her and Katcsa fight once but that was it... until today.
I watched her sort of do her usual chase after them and try to peck the ducklings when I saw Izzy turn around and ark up to fight with her. They are about the same size so it was game on. Speedy's neck feathers got all arched up and she was ready for a punch on.
I had to separate them twice as I'm pretty sure Speedy would have won. If it had of been any other chicken I would have been really annoyed at them but I only look at Speedy through my rose coloured glasses.

Sounds like I need to have a little talk with Speedy and Izzy both when I see them. Girls can be so mean. What's the bird equivalent of a cat fight?

I told Speedy yesterday when I was getting her out of the tree that you were coming and we had a little chat about it. She's very excited.
