This is all pretty normal if you ask me. I've had roos pull almost all the feathers off my girls backs before.
But your hen by that photo - could just be sick and nothing related to the roosters admiration.
How does her keel feel? Is it plump and meaty or is she thin and boney? Have you wormed the birds, has she laid any eggs? Could she be egg bound? Could she have coccidia? Lice/Mites? Just some things to look for outside of the roo.
