We have one chicken who seems to be targeted by the others. We have a flock of 29 and no matter what we've tried, the others beat up on her. We have placed her in a cage within the coop so that she remains part flock for the last few weeks, but today, my son took her out and set her down to feed everyone and immediately one jumped on her and then she tried to go after another chicken. The rest of the flock, other than minor, normal squabbles, is peaceful. Many of her feathers have been lost. We've put anti-peck gel on her. We're out of ideas on how to integrate her. This has been going on for months. Is it time to see if we can re-home her? She's a sweet bird with humans, but she doesn't not get along with the rest of the flock!
