Im so annoyed with my hens pecking order at the minute, Ginger is the only battery hen left off my very first hens, she si 6 years old and had ruled the roost for 4 years!, i then got these buff orpingotns who both beat her and really badly bully her, now another hen below her beat her up when she was limping, shes dropped so bad in condition as she is usually chased away from the food, sp if im ever there for long enough i throw her a pile somewere else. Its so not fair on her, she was never ever horrible to them when she was the boss of them. she was such a lovley boss she nerver pecked the other hens unless they pecked her or were pushing her out the food bowl and to top her off her best friend died...
