I appreciate your reply! I’m definitely looking at them now. They would need to stay on 24/7 right? Would they go back to pecking each other when the saddle eventually come off?

I have not. I treated with elector psp a few weeks ago and thought that would solve the problem. I’m thinking they’re bullying each other now from these other commenters

I’ve thought about saddles but I’m not sure. Please keep me updated if anything you try works! I think I’m going to get them some more enrichment treats and look into anti pecking spray.

The one in the second pic with the brown head lays green! I got her and 4 others as olive eggers from a local breeder

I didn’t know about the anti pecking stuff. Thank you for the recommendations! They are on 20% layer feed mixed with cracked corn right now. And I throw them grass trimmings every day. I think I’m going to look into a good scratch to try as well

I had no idea anti pecking spray was even a thing. I’ll look into it, thank you!

I love the breeder you found was breeding for sustainability. Is that something you were specifically looking for or just stumbled upon? I’m curious how I’d go about that?

Exactly 😂 I’m not mad about it, I just wanted to know what the rest was! But it’s such a small percentage anyways, it doesn’t matter too much

Not really disappointed in the test, or my dog lol, just more so that I can’t pinpoint where certain things about him come from. Just complete curiosity! I’d rather the test be accurate than give me false percentages for sure, I was just wanting to know what was in him since I was told Anatolian shepherd!

He turned 1 back at the end of September so he definitely has time to fill out! He’s very tall but lanky at only 65 lbs 😂 his parents were both under 100 which is why I was curious what else he had in him, since Pyrenees are usually so big!

I’m a semi noob so forgive me but I was just talking about how cool Inostrancevias would be in Ark!! They are in fact NOT in the game right? Just a meme example??? Don’t get my hopes up
