Martin B Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I have a bit of a problem. Chicken keeping has been pretty straight forward for me, but I now have a problem. Carly was top chook until a few days ago, and the hens have all had a bust up and Carly is bottom chicken. She has been pecked so badly and her skin is visible in areas. What can I do to stop the pecking? Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Sorry to hear this Martin - try purple spray and or diluted tea tree oil (tastes yuk) to put them off pecking. Perhaps she is poorly and the others sense this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
