We have a flock of 10 birds, 9 hens and 1 rooster. Currently half are going through a moult, and just recently I've noticed that one of the moulters is being picked on by all the others. She has always been the smallest. I have checked her for any open wounds and has none. Whenever she tries to eat and/or drink the others intimidate her and she runs away. They do not chase after her. She spends most of the day in a nest box or on the roost. The last few days I have separated her late in the afternoon and over night to give her a chance to eat, drink & rest. I put her back in the coop in the morning hoping things will change, but so far, it hasn't. Any suggestions?
