Help! My Old Lady Please

[Lovem all]

(for the sake of time I will abbreviate all rooster names.)
I have 30+ chickens, and 4 roosters. R is the orginal, D,Z, and M are all new this year. Born in may.
D was the first to become a roo and while he was learning how to have sex one of my ten year old chickens Connie (barred rock, as of recent she just stopped laying eggs.) started molting badly. She was a porqupine. For some reason this made him obbsesed with her. Chassing her all around the yard. At the same time she was staying in the egg box all day and even eating all the eggs. Well now Z is starting to learn about sex. The two of them are chasing her all around the yeard whenever they see her and they are seriously hurting her. I know chickens fuss when the males mount but these are cries of pain. It's any time she is off the egg box to eat or drink or to e herded. they are obbsesed. Just today my sister put her outside the coop. Twenty seconds latter Z comes from the other side, corned her and was trying to mount. I was able to push his away some. I asked my sister to grab connie but then I turned and saw that she is fighting d away from her who came from the other side. They are tag teaming my old girl. Our guinea, her ten year old sister combs, and our adult roo r has tried to make them stop. We have kept them locked in the bed time coop to try and deteir it. Connie is a family favorite from our orginals. She's old and not in great condition. I guess my main question is
how can we make the stop wanting to have sex with her?

Can you separate her with another hen or two for company? Or separate your cockerels. As long as they’re all together, they’ll likely keep trying to mate her.

Boys will be boys, and these boys are getting their crazy teen hormones. Connie is apparently very attractive to them, so for her sake separate the boys until at least her molt is done. If separation isn't an option, then at the very least you should get her a chicken saddle just to protect her bare skin and new feathers while they come in. The new pin feathers are very sensitive and should be touched as little as possible, so their mounting may be less uncomfortable once she's fully fluffed up.

To help all your birds go through a speedy molt up their protein with fun treats and supplements like grubs, oatmeal, cat food and scrambled eggs. This might also deter her from eating eggs.

I'd separate or get rid of all the young extra males.

R has one foot in the grave so D is his replacment.
Z is for my breeding purposes.
seperating her out wouldn't really work but we have had to put the boys is a coop during the day.
All roos get along great and respect all of the other ladies

this morning z got on her, sucessfully, but as soon as he got off she went to run and he tried to get her again. Also I saw several of her feathers on the ground. Even a clump of three and a clump of five. Her comb was bleeding some when we let them out of the night coop. And when we went to check on her D was under the egg box crowing up at her.

Well you might just have to separate her and the roosters if you can.

for a while D had lost interest, but it seems that with Z gaining interest he wants her too
