So I got 2 laying hens one is a bit older than the other from the looks of it andwe don’t know the age or breed all I know is that we got her from a feed store and they were already laying She was only kept with hens when I bought them the roosters were in a different thing but last night I noticed hen 1 pecking hen 2 on the neck repeatedly right where her neck bald spot was so I put them in opposite corners of the coop and since it was night I figured they would be good because there it was dark and they couldn’t see but this morning I checked the floor and it was covered with half broken feathers and hen 2s comb was bleeding a tiny dot of blood!! Is this normal because of the pecking order? They were together when I got her and I thought she was bald because of the roosters but now I think it’s might have been the hens. Any help would be appreciated!
