Most Roosters are good and protect the hens,..the odd one can do a lot of damage,..PTSD type reaction even in hens is not unusual,..they do remember!,..i am pleased that "Blondie",..is 99% recovered,..and in time will probably be fully recovered,..what i would keep an eye on is the new culprit,.."Sugar",..and this pecking,..now that does get out of hand,..even to the extent that all the head or tail feathers were pecked away and nothing left but flesh,..then it would start on the flesh,..when i spotted pecking starting i always removed the pecking hen,..lets say culled,..so do keep an eye on "Sugar",..and her pecking.
