Hen bulling one specific hen....HELP

That's ok; I do that all the time. How old was she and her siblings when they were added? What was the integration like and setup? On size, does she take more after the Orpington or the Australorp/BSL side? She may just be getting bullied more due to being at the bottom of the pecking order. Resetting your pecking order by separating your bully for a time may be the best thing to do, but boosting the bullied hen's confidence will help her with the rest of the flock.

I really don't know because mama hen was bringing them out. She is actually really pretty, definitely more buff Orpington. She is a but bigger then the bully too.

So was the mother hen never separated from the flock; the chicks were all raised with the flock instead of an integration process? She might be taking more after the Orpington, personality wise. Orpingtons tend to be more docile, thus risking being lower in the pecking order. Size doesn't always matter when there’s an aggressive small hen. (I've had bantams bully my Orpingtons before!)

From what I can see of her saddle, it looks like it was made out of strong materials. Again, I highly recommend trimming your rooster's spurs and nails down.

Mom strayed from the flock here and there, but mostly stayed close when they free ranged.
Oh wow! Bantams are adorable!
I will, I just bought a nice nail trimmer.
