    fine sandpaper eggs and loss of feathers

    I did put her with the others last night and boy did they attack her. Today it appears they worked out the pecking order. I dusted her and her bedding numerous times while she was in isolation.

I feed layer pellet, some corn scratch, fresh greens, and have recently been grinding my eggshells in the blender and giving that to her.

    fine sandpaper eggs and loss of feathers

    I have a chicken that had a bald spot high on her chest. I isolated her and dusted her with DE. She continued to lose feathers, now around her neck and some loss on her belly. Redusted her with DE. She does not like being alone, seems to miss her buddies and is stressed just by being in...
