Have you checked her for lice/mites.

Chicks can be somewhat itchy when feathering out.
I would keep the spray on her.

As for why the others picked at her, hard to know. Do they have plenty of space?
What's your weather like, do you have their outdoor coop/run ready?

I checked her over and didn't see anything initially, I thought space and then moved them all when I seperated I Saw initially it was because she looked different than them and then once blood was drawn with a kind I had at it my main thought was am I just waiting until her feathers come back so that I can re introduce her back with them I am in the process of getting them and outside running made but for now I feel like they have adequate space for all the other 7 chicks are just doing fine no pecking and no preening other than normal Everyone seems to be growing and getting feathers in
