I found one of my red Orpingtons in the snow under the coop last week, upon examinating her in the house, she had a large open wound all the way down her back. I kept her inside for 6 days while doctoring her, I returned her to her 'flockmates' after the wound had closed and feathers we're starting to grow. This DID NOT go well at all, they immediately started pecking & flogging her, I removed her again and now have her separated from the rest in a separate coop. What did I do wrong? I bought her and the rooster together and raised them with 4 other Buffs the same age, and all of a sudden this? I have ordered aprons for all the hens, just haven't arrived yet.
Any info is GREATLY appreciated
