    Chicken lost an eye :(

    Oh no... I hope we don't have to put her down. She's my pet :( I am going to try and talk my father into letting us isolate her with a duck for company.

If they are, they could have only pecked out of boredom. If this is the case add a perch and some salad to entertain them. :) Good! I'm...

    Would the broody have eaten her if she died naturally though?

    It's actually really normal for chickens to go after any weaker hens\roosters. I had the same thing happen to one of mine. Because they're animals, they pick on anyone who's weaker, smaller, or hurt, regardless of color. If a chicken goes down in a flock, they will kill her by pecking her to...
