Chicken sometimes start attacking each other and that is good you separated her to heal as chicken can go cannibalistic quite quickly. You need to spend some time observing your hens to see who is trouble. Also, check all of your other hens for bald spots and pecks (usually the ones lowest in the pecking order). It may be an isolated incident but I would use pick stop lotion you can pick up at your local poultry supplies store on all of them just in case.
