    Found one of my hens pecked to death

    Yeah I’m building a roost for them at the moment but I do have small pallets rested up against the side you can’t see in the pictures. I will definitely add some toys for them I didn’t really think of that. I haven’t had chickens since I was a kid so it’s like starting over. All advice is...

    Found one of my hens pecked to death

    It’s been over a month? You think I they still could be stressed ? I did notice some feathers missing from my youngest hen just below her head on her neck no blood though. I checked all the others. I also cleaned out the coop and replaced the bedding this evening as well.

    Found one of my hens pecked to death

    I don’t think so? She was perfectly fine when I fed them and then I just randomly went out to check them and they were all on top of her pecking and scratching her ?

    I feed them fresh vegetables/fruits Layer crumble, scratch, oyster shells, meal worms and a blend of seeds. (Obviously not all at once but Always feed crumble and the weeds ) I also pick grass and weeds and throw them in for them.

    Found one of my hens pecked to death

    They are in an enclosed roofed coop/run. I saw them all pecking her when I stopped in the check on them. At that point she was already bloody.

    I’m not exactly sure I got them from someone else. They told me they were just starting to lay. Yes I found her in the coop.
