Hi all,

 

One of my 14 week old growers has suddenly turned into a nasty little bully and I am wondering what to do. She has started trying to pull feathers out of all the others, including the cockerel, and is terrorising the smallest one - she chases it continually and has pulled out quite a few feathers on its' back near the tail. No blood has been drawn and I have sprayed the victim with anti-peck spray.

Should I remove the bully for a few days, and put her in the sin bin, or are they too young to be separated like this? Any other ideas?

TIA.
