rooster's pulling hens feathers out on head

[junipercloud113420]

my little bantam hen kool-aid has bald spots on boths sides of her head from the roosters is there something I could put on her head?

Can you separate her and post pictures of her? Is she bleeding, or how bad is the injury?What do you have for first aid, any saline, chlorhexidine/Hibiclens, wound spray? Neosporin ointment?

I have her somewhere with some other hens. I'll try to get some pictures tomorrow. I have neosporin and salin solution. its not bleeding

Just let her heal, preferably isolated, the roosters do that when trying to hop on to mate, they can be quite rough sometimes.

No need to put anything on it. My hens have had that for years, they r fine.

How many roosters do you have with how many hens? You may want to remove some of the roosters.

This may very well be the problem and solution.

I have four bantam roosters and four bantam hens they all free range

Way too many roosters for only four hens.
