Serama Hen Picks on Mama Hen and Babies

[RainForestBird]

I have a mean Serama pullet that attacks other hens and their babies. She was an only hatchling and when her own mama got fed up, another hen adopted her and two younger pullets. Now she is picking on the adopted mama while she is trying to protect the younger pullets (extending her wings to cover them while sleeping). I don't want to put her in with the full grown Seramas (including a rooster), I know she would not last long. I have no other birds her age and size that would be a good match. So rather than keep her alone, I'm thinking of adopting her out. She can be mean, I think she was responsible for attacking a special needs hen in the same enclosure.

Should I keep her alone, or rehome her? She is a cream with tan splash, her dad was mottled and pretty, mom was also cream and tan.

Letting someone adopt your hen is a very good solution. You know your flock and the temperaments of the individuals, so trust your own judgement.
