The hair stripping has begun, she's doing it to everyone! She even tries to do it to me.

Are you seeing tensions rising in the group?

No, they seem more settled lots of piles and grooming, no squabbling.
They're also being extra affectionate toward me now, I'm getting jumped on and piled on and .... I'm not complaining, but it's more than it was before.

I wouldn't worry too much about it then, it's good that they are cementing their bonds.

WHOA!! That's quite the Viking like appearance!! I might be rather nervous if I woke in the night with her staring down at me!

It's a heart shaped bald patch though, bless her for putting up with it.

Oh no! She's been positively sheared!
It kind of sounds like Bryn might just... be like that. From what you're describing, everything sounds like it's going fine, and there are no signs of social issues, and no other signs of high stress or any obvious causes. The only thing I can think of is that she's somehow overcompensating the need to groom the others due to some social anxiety or overeagerness she has, but I'm really not sure how that could be fixed...
The others don't resist it, then? I guess my main worry would be what happens to all the fur Bryn pulls out of them. If she actually ends up ingesting notable amounts of it, that could be dangerous in the long run since it can't be digested...
