What is a normal weight for a hen?

[MariaChickenMama]

I have a Henn and she is so light. When I pick her up, she is so thin. I’m just she’s been isolated because she hurt her leg. This is probably the third time she hurt her leg. I let her out and then somehow she got into a squabble with some other chickens and hurt her leg again and I don’t know if it’s because she’s so thin and lightweight or what maybe she was one of them that wasn’t always able to get food And wonder I should give her something different than feed. I mean she’s laying every single day. It’s not a big egg but it is an egg so I just wonder if there’s anything else I could feed her to get her a little bit more on her bones so she’s a little bit sturdier , and nobody can beat her up. I was thinking about getting some grower feed and giving her some of that mixed in with the layer feed

A starter/grower or all flock/flock raiser would increase the protein, but would dilute the calcium. Compensate by offering oyster shells in a separate dish. She may also be at an appropriate size/weight based on breed and age.

Hen weight: depends upon the breed and age of bird. A silkie and a jersey giant of the same age are NOT going to weigh the same. Silkies top out at about 3 pounds and giants can weigh 13 pounds

She looks like a Legbar or Legbar mix and they're naturally slender birds. Making her fatter isn't going to change her place in the pecking order. You mention she was isolated but not if she was properly re-integrated into the flock - if she was attacked when you returned her it has nothing to do with her weight and everything to do with flock dynamics.
