Hello,
I am pretty new to chickens and I have a question. This chick (Lavender Orpington) will be 6 weeks old on 5/1. Her feathers look separated and she has large bald spot compared to her brothers and sisters, She is not feathering out well and looks weeks younger than her other hatch mates. All of the other chicks are 90% feathered out. She is still lively, eats, drinks, plays just like everyone else. I have not seen any lice on her, I am very puzzled. If someone might offer some advice or knows what is going, I would sure appreciate the help. Thanks so much!!
