My poor chicken Teeny

[ChickenzGurl]

My sweet little chicken Teeny has gotten herself to the bottom of the totem pole. With her sister, Pez, attacking her whenever she is near, I’m starting to get a little worried for Teeny. She has lost feathers from her head to her butt. I want to separate her from the others, but then she will not have ANY friends! Please tell me any of your opinions

Chicken #1 is Pez, Teeny’s sister. Chicken #2 is Teeny

I would separate her until she gets stronger

I would separate her until she gets stronger

Ok, should I still open her coop up the same time as the others?

I would isolate her until she gets stronger, I use a dog pen outside to reintroduce my hens if I have to isolate them inside. You could do this for Teeny too so she can still see the flock, just make sure something is thrown over the top of the pen so she is protected from any flock members that might want to jump into the pen with her and any animals the might want to attack her.

If Pez is doing the plucking - she NEEDS to spend a few days in solitary confinement, she is the offender , Teeny is not!! Sometimes after a time or two in isolation crate, the picker comes back lower on the pecking order. If she doesn't repent, get her Pinless Peepers (check out via search box). Peepers prevent the bird from seeing straight ahead so aim is off, and she'll too annoyed to do evil.
