I will take some close up pictures of the birds and the feather loss areas and post them later. I think the feathers are plucked some from the rooster who is now not with us so his damage should grow back the other plucking is from dominate hens more than one I have witnessed this. I do see new feather growth in some of the areas. At one point I had one of the hens isolated to regrow her feathers and she plucked some of her own feathers off or a parasite got them because she developed a bald spot on one of her legs. Some of the feather loss is from areas she could not have plucked herself. I have 2 Australorps and they are both in the same condition I also have a few others missing some feathers with bald areas but nothing like the 2 Australorps.
