Okay, I have this taken care of.
I put the problem chick in a separate cage inside the brooder, but to where the other chicks could walk around the cage and see the problem chick. Every evening we would take the problem chick out of the cage and watch her interact with the other chicks, and when the first serious eye pecking would take place then she would go back to confinement. Sometimes she could make it only a minute and other times 15-20 minutes, but after about 1week or so, she joined the other chicks without any problems. I hope this helps somebody else out there, this is not a common problem but when you have a chick that does this to this extreme, you know it, and you will most likely be like me....searching for answers. I will post pics of this rare breed flock asap. Thanks again
