    feather pecking

    Apart from using pinless peepers and having a larger space, I would figure out who is doing the feather picking and separate her from the flock. Good luck with this! Keep us posted!

    Chick integration- not going as smoothly as last time around- GRAPHIC sad update

    Rooster is henpecked

    Is it all the hens plucking out the feathers or just one? I have used pinless peepers before on the guilty hen or hens and they work. Another idea is if it is just one instigator, to isolate that one for a bit instead of the rooster. This may rearrange the pecking order and stop the behavior.
