Egluntyne Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Welcome to the forum. It sounds as if she need some anti-peck spray to stop the others having a go at her. When she comes into lay, the pecking order might shift and they may leave her alone. You could try the pecky hens with **bumpa bits** if they persist.
