not at all pete,although the new pr have not been tried with any red birds yet.the previous owner said they were ok.even the cocks together are not to bad.the only thing is the paired cock does not like another crimson cock sitting beside the hen.I have heard they can be very aggressive,i think it depends on the strain?
