We got a new chicken last night and put her in the coop with the other birds. This afternoon my wife went to check for eggs and found the new birds tail pecked clean of feathers. Any idea why the other birds would be doing this?
We have taken the new bird inside to prevent further injuries to her ... we don't want the other birds pecking her to death!
We have 4 birds: a barred rock, golden comet, and white leghorn. The newest bird is an aracuana. They are all similar in age, with the white leghorn being the oldest and laying.
