yes It was dark when we returned with her. We just sat her on her perch and things were ok till last night when they went to perch for the night. Today it has just progressed to much worse. I will try to give her some stuff to hide behind and see if that works. I just hate it that they are...
We have 4 hens for my daughters and my oldest took one to the fair to show. She was there a couple weeks and now the 3 hens won't let her back in their coop. They have pecked her face all up and she just hides in the corner to try and get away. I have taken her out and put her in a dog crate in...
