Okay so it's been a week since we brought our first-ever hens home. They all came from the same farm, though were around many more hens and a couple of roosters. So, one week later, I have 5 hens...2 are bossy, 2 don't care, and Checkers, who looks skinnier than when we got her. I know she eats, just not as much. Seems like she just looks at the bossy hens and they peck and chase her. I see Checker's feathers around. Not sure what to do. We will try more than one watering site. I already spread the food around quite a bit, though the bossy ones go from one to another, by then, Checkers has given up, and stays out of the way. Seems as she watches for no hen to be at a feed area for a while, then she tries. It use to be that Checkers was the first to greet me when I brought them food...now, she hides out of the way for the others. Hard to watch such bullying!
