Hello again! I ended up removing the boys every single day, at sunrise, and keeping them away from the girls until I go to bed at night, anytime between 10pm & 12am. During those hours, everyone is locked up in the coop with no lights. I haven't noticed any improvements with Amelia Bedila's back, but no open wounds anymore, just more missing feathers, throughout the day. Well, this evening I gathered the boys up to switch them from free ranging to the coop
(no possible interaction at all between boys and girls) and noticed a nasty looking wound on Amelia Bedila's back. I believe she's also suffering from possible bumblefoot, that I've just noticed and started treating today. So, is it possible that one of the other pullets is doing this to her? If it's going to happen, it will to this poor girl. I feel so bad for her.
