My experience shows it to be the fact the weak ones at the bottom of the pecking order get picked on and if you don't catch it in time, they end up deceased. I have found if you pay attention you will find the ones being picked on and you can move them to another location or as I do to a small cage to contain them until they heal. I have had pretty good luck re-introducing them back into the flock a week or two later after they have healed from any wounds. Strangely they seem to hold their own the second time around, not sure why. Since practicing this, I have lost very few hens which is a good thing! Our family loves our fresh brown farm eggs as do our fellow church members who have grown to expect them every Sunday. More birds, more eggs. Good luck, RGVTX.
