A few of my hens are missing feathers on the top of their heads. I believe this is from my rooster mating with them. Is there a way to help their feathers grow back?
 
The feathers won't grow back until a fall molt. Your rooster sounds like he's too much for your hens.
 
Only a few of my hens are missing feathers on their heads, I think they are his favorites. Is there anything I can do to discourage him grabbing on their feathers?
