Please help!
I noticed a small area of missing feathers on my 7 month old buff orphington the other day.The area is near her tail on her lower back. Well today the area is not just some missing feathers, it has turned in to a whole patch and now bare skin is showing. There is also areas of dry blood and I caught another hen pecking at the area. How can I get other hens to stop pecking at her bare spot ASAP? I don’t have a place to really separate her.
