No I realise that. I'm a real amateur and am just happy that I've got something a little different.
And yes I'm ready for tomorrow. Anti-peck spray at the ready!
You mustn't use antipeck spray. That's only for use to break bad habits like feather eating.
What will happen tomorrow is that your old birds will try to drive your new ones away off their teritory. They may peck and fly at them visciously with their claws. They may even guard their food, so put out several feeders and drinkers. This behavior is perfectly NATURAL and NORMAL and won't be cured with antipeck spray.
Once the old ones have learnt to accept the new ones as part of the flock there will be a pecking order to be sorted out and they will peck each other though not visciously usually. Again this is perfectly NORMAL behaviour and you should not use antipeck spray to inhibit this and it is unlikely to work anyway.
Antipeck spray is for use with breaking the habit of feather eating and even then the under lying causes usually poor husbandry or nutritional should be tackled first before resorting to this as a very last resort.
In summary there are 3 reasons for pecking.
1 Territorial - Natural behaviour, introduce slowly and time will cure. This will happen tomorrow
2 Pecking order - Natural behaviour you shouldn't attempt to suppress and happens all the time though less once an order is established
3 Feather eating / pecking - a mental disorder usualy habit forming brought on by overcrowding, stress, unactivity, high energy dense diet (too many treats), other boredom habit. Solve by identifying the reason and eliminating. Use beak bits in preference to antipeck spray.
