Egg Pecker??

[Bourkeco]

One of my 6 hens destroys some of the other hens eggs, but but not all she seems to go after her own eggs and my Rode Island Red, she is a French Marrin.
I separated her from the others and now she lays more often 2 in two days (used to do 1 a week maybe) she is about a year old.
Ive only had her by herself for two days so this is still a test..

Anyone have any Ideas on what her deal is?

Not sure if you want her mental state figured out--- or....if you want a way to deal with the egg eating. ;O)

IF I had a hen that was eating eggs, I would put these Bumper Bits on her... also they are called Bumpa Bits. They can be obtained from eBay in the UK.

Here is an example--- in this case installed on a hen that was helping herself to her room mates feathers. But I understand it an stop the hen from being able to break into an egg shell.
