I have an Americana/Easter egger (named Dottie) who is on the bottom of the pecking order. I noticed yesterday she was letting her "buddy" peck close to her earlobe, and I figured the buddy was just getting food or something caught on her feather. Later I checked on Dottie and saw she had a red spot (not bleeding but missing feathers and maybe some pus) and another small bold spot under her check/neck area. I cleaned the area and put her in the coop since I wasn't worried about her at night. I checked up on her this morning through the camera set in our run and saw that another bird was pecking at this area. My question is that Dottie did *not* try to run away...she just stood there still as if to let the other chicken peck at her. Is she letting them peck her for a reason? (I see no mites or anything else of concern). - she does seem like the "dumb blonde" type to be honest! Should I separate her until the wound heals, and if so, can I just put her in a large dog crate with her own food/water and keep that in the run with the others so she can still be near them or is that bad to isolate her that way (meaning the others will see her as isolated and later pick on her more?)? I feel that might be nicer than just putting her in a crate in the garage all by herself. I have 5 hens, all about the same age, but she has the muff feathers and looks different than the rest. They also have a large coop and run (larger than recommended dimensions), so plenty of space for her to get away. Not sure how to go about this. Thanks.
