A few of my hens have been losing feathers. I've checked for mites/lice and haven't noticed anything like that but I don't really have a trained eye for spotting them. Anyway, my RIR hen was in the nesting box this morning and I noticed her feathers. I do have a rooster, and he has a few...

My poor roo Foghorn had to be isolated due to bloody behind (I was told my other chickens may have pulled his"blood"feathers? Idk a lot about chickens as this is my first flock so I am still learning very much. I have him isolated bc they kept picking his bloody rear. Well now he is showing...

Im pretty sure shes a hen, but this is coming from little to no chicken experience. However, i dont know what kind of hen she is. Shes grown pretty quickly, one of the two biggest of my first six chickens. I thought she was a buff oprington when she was a chick bc she was in a bin that was not...

I am new to owning chickens, my grandparents had them for a long time and i eventually (from a series of unfortunate flogging events) became pretty anxious around roosters. :lol: :/ and well, pretty much all chickens. But i decided to try my hand at raising some chicks in hopes that they may not...
