Zinc

[Three Meadows]

We sprayed our pecan trees with zinc and waited until after the first rain to let our hens pasture on the grass. We are getting aggressive behavior in a couple of the hens. Attacking one hen in particular that is very timid. Could this be related?

Not likely. Zinc can cause a decrease in eggs in high amounts but I wouldn't worry about it.
