Hi, I recently added two extremely sweet Polish Candy Corn pullets to my flock of four. I introduced them slowly, but as soon as I put them in with the rest of the flock they were definitely put at the bottom of the pecking order (which I expected), but my boss hens completely pecked away bald spots on the top of their heads. It freaked me out a bit because I wasn’t sure if this amount of aggression was normal. I am treating them with wound spray. I also separated them for now. Is this normal? Should I worry? Thanks!
