This is my bantam frizzle roo. Couple problems here that I’m not sure about.
#1) As you can see in the photos, he has considerable loss of feathers. The ones on his neck are just the shaft of the feather that’s left- they feel like wire. The ones on his sides and wings are just plain missing. On occasion I will see some new growth but it doesn’t seem to make a difference.
**Question: Do you think it’s from bullying or maybe he has a vitamin deficiency?**
#2) I think (from what I’ve read regarding his behavior) that he has a neurological issue. He is constantly walking backwards with his head down.
**Question: Is it likely a neuro issue or something else?**
Any help is appreciated!
