Has anyone ever had a Rooster not allow a Hen back in the group. I have keep her separated since the rooster started attaching her. He has bit into her neck on several occasions. I have her on my fenced back patio, but every so often she trys
to re-enter the group by flying over the fence. He will not let her eat, and if she gets near the other hens he chases and when she submits he pulls her neck and head feathers out and bits and brings blood. So we have to start the healing process all over.
I have not idea what I'm supposed to do at this point. Wait longer? I just hate keeping her in a dog cage all the time. But if I let her out she try's to get back to the flock.
