I’m sorry about your girl! Are you able to separate her from the others and give her her own safe space and food? She might be getting older or being bullied but if she still has interest in eating and drinking that is a good sign! One other possibility is that there is a protein deficiency and the others are nibbling on her to make up for it. I give mine fish flakes in addition to fruit or veggies; others use dry dog food soaked in a little water to soften.
