The feathers in that area seemed more ruffled everytime he mounts them. His balance sucks so he rocks back and forth on their back until he gets where he wants to be....even the smallest bird is starting to show some ruffled feathers in that area

Will the feathers grow back before the next molt?
If I don't use a saddle what will happen? I mean what do people do if they have this issue and have 60 chickens?hu
