kevtheplumber Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Just had a check of all 4 and the lowest ranked hen has lost a lot of feathers, her bum is red raw and very hot, not noticed her being broody so doubt it's that. She does get pecked a bit by the head hen but peck spray seems to keep her off, or I thought so, any ideas? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats and Chickens Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Sounds like she has had her feathers pecked by top chook. Have you considered fitting the offender with a bumper bit? I have had a similar problem and have not found an effective solution as my top chook ws able to remove her bumper bit but I understand that this is unusual. Good luck.
