Rooster with No Feathers on his Rear - Can He Stay Outside?

I'd put him back with the flock, but monitor closely so that they do not feather pluck his pin feathers when they start growing.

Yup, I agree with sour.

Thank you for the advice everyone! I put him in the coop with the rest tonight after dusk so they weren’t too rambunctious, hopefully they’ll wake up tomorrow and think he’s been there the whole time ahaha.

Watching him today, I have to wonder if he didn’t get knocked around a bit or have some kind of muscle injuries; he seems stiff and hesitant to move, even for his favorite treats. I will monitor him closely.

Shock on it's own will take a few days to recover give him a couple weeks to get back in the swing
