Feathers pecked, blood

[Joe Pet]

Unfortunately, here is a picture of one of my hens that was pecked.

What products can I use heal. She was also pecked on the face by the beak.

There are 6 hens and they have been together for 6 months. Any ideas to work towards prevention. Does peck spray or lotion work?

Do you want the measurements of the coop? I read something about providing proper nutrition.

I forgot the picture. She is a polish and has a sister. I read that other hens are curious of the fluffy head. I applied peck no more to her sister .

Blue Kote will help. You may need to keep her separate until she heals.

I have used BluKote when feathers on a Polish have just begun to be pulled like yours. Use it at least every other day, and they can be left with the others. If you notice more pecking take her out. Some find that pine tar ointment in the horse products aisle works well to prevent pecking because it is sticky and has a strong odor. The best place for her if she needs to be separated is in a wire dog crate with food and water, but left with her flock.
