I've only experienced pecking by BG when there are a lot of small ones or stunted populations. They actually go after the hair on your legs or in my dad's case decided one of his nipples was a pellet. LOL

I have no issues at all with pecking in my male only bluegill pond.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
