One of my BO's was yanking some feathers out of my White EE. By the time my wife got outside they were done. The EE had some blood at the top of her comb area right where the feathers start. She took the EE out of the run and put her in a separate enclosure. When I got home I cleaned her up and trimmed the blood stained feathers down. there is a very small scabby feather stump left as small as the ball point of a pen. Is it safe to leave her in with the others tomorrow? I put her back in for the night, the coop was quiet after she climbed up on the roost and they acted like nothing happened. I have seen them picking on each other before but that was not like this. My wife said that the BO was on her back and ripping feathers out of her neck.
They are about 10 weeks old.
Should I trust them alone tomorrow? (They will be unsupervised most of the day in a secure coop/run)
