I have 4 pullets, around 14 weeks old. I purchased them from another breeder a month ago.
They had lost their tail feathers and the breeder attributed it to stress. I have them isolated in a large pen. The other day I noticed 1 had a bleeding tail and all the little feathers that were growing were gone. I checked them all and only the girl with the bleeding tail feathers had blood on her beak, no one else. So I put some Peck-No-More on her tail.
Today I noticed her tail bleeding again, and her beak had blood on it.
I checked them for mites and lice, I put DE on them last week.
Im not sure why she keeps pulling her trail feathers out
