Getting picked on...

[ChickieNugget]

Hey there!
I currently have 4 chickens and poor little Hei Hei whose at the bottom of the pecking order, has bald spots on her from the other girls literally picking on her. How do you stop this behavior?

Provide more space and hiding places. If the pecking/plucking continues, Pin Less Peepers can sometimes break the habit.

Sometimes this behavior is unstoppable.

Make sure she has somewhere to run away from them

The have tons of space and hiding places...I might try the peepers thing.

Yep, good idea. You can find them on amazon, or maybe a tractor supply/local feed store.
