Nope, but by the way it looks she may of been picked on by another chicken.
My suspect?

Yes, you, Stormfeather.
Why?
Simple. He is and acts just like a Hormonal Idiot. Chases hens, pecks them on the roost, and other things I won't bother talking about. Only thing on earth that stops him is...

Older Rooster = More sense

Ijak chases Stormfeather away when he sees this.

The only time when Ijak can't stop this is when they are roosting.
Yesterday when the chooks were roosting, Stormfeather tried picking at Cluckie's foot, and I batted him off the roost so that an older chook could come and nest in between her and Stormfeather.
I have to bat Cockerel off the roost if he starts crowing after dark. It shuts him right up.

Good idea.

"Hooman, you're going to pay for that. When my spurs get as long as Ijak's... Just you wait."
 
My girls have been asking about the Batty Ol' Hens range. So there's broody serum, cockerel control, any others? Samara in particular was hoping for something to help her place in the pecking order, she's trying to usurp Liara as head hen. Liara of course immediately asked if there was anything to help her keep her place, then Ash started yelling because she likes to yell, Morinth joined in because yelling is fun, it was a whole thing.
