One of my girls has been the target of pecking from the other 9 ever since they started laying eggs on Christmas Eve. There were no problems with any of them until the first eggs started arriving.
This morning I went out to the chicken shed and one of them was bleeding from the back of the comb. She has marks on her comb and has what looks like bruising around her head and eyes.
This afternoon I separated her from the rest of the flock, keeping her in the front of the shed. Although only a few feet from the rest, she was not happy with my decision.
Question: Am I right to separate her for now? Do the "eye goggles' work?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm new at this.
Thanks!
Robert
