I am having the same problem with 3 of my 5hens picking on the one named Nugget. To the point ox not letting her eat or drink. She seems cone health wise. They even keep her out of the dusting box. ????i used to get worried when my chickens did that. (my chicks STILL do that) they are 7 or so months old now. yours sounds like an intense pecking order. but don't worry, uness the poor hen starts getting really hurt, like @aart said before. post again if it gets worse, or if entire clumps (or just little clumps) of feathers starts being pulled. but currently it sounds fine.if you could post a video or picture of the hen getting attacked, that might help to see how intense. it will happen again.
