I know these pics are not the greatest but they are the best I have right at the moment. I have 8 hens. They all seems to be starting to look more and more like the goldish colored one in the pics. I have noticed that one, the black one in the first pic, has been jumping on top of a couple of the others pecking at them. Im not sure if she is doing it to all of them. I also notice that they all are pecking at each other. I have been thru this once before but that was when my cousin was helping me with the chickens, and she was the one in charge so I dont really remember what was done. She has had a family emergency and is out of the state with her 5 year old who is ill, so I can not bother her. She is counting on me to handle the chickens.. I NEED help! So I turn to you all. I have always gotten great answers from the people here. Im just not sure what to do. If anyone can help I would so love you for it. If you need more info just ask. Thank you all in advance. Also one of my hens has no tail feathers, she lost them I believe when she molted, but every time she starts to get new ones the others pull them out.. What can I do about this? Anything?






 
Separate the aggressive hen for a few days. Then reintroduce her. Change up the pecking order. I have had that problem before I put the naughty hen alone for about 3 days then put her back and things were fine good luck
 
O ok. Yea, kinda wanna avoid that. lol. But yea ill do the time out for now and see what happens. Thank you.
