I have a small flock 1 crippled rooster, 2 buff orpingtons and 3 silkie hens. Everyone is about the same age 1-2 years old. Over the past few months I’ve noticed signs of bullying. It started with the roo he has his neck and part of his back plucked bald. I tried spraying him purple but that didn’t seem to work. It just made them all afraid of me. They have a 10x10 enclosed run. There are too many predators in the area. I built them 2 outdoor roosting ladders (that no one seems to use) and hung cabbage heads and corn on the cob from the roof of the enclosure to try and entertain them. To date all but the one BO have bald butts. The Bully is the sweetest chicken of them all and everyone’s favorite, but I can’t allow the bullying to continue. Today I removed her from the general population and put her in a dog crate in the garage. How long should I segregate her for to stop the bullying? I hope it’s just winter boredom...
