I always feed them layer pellets, but my pup is allergic to the food we have so I didnt want it to be thrown away. I think I will keep it til winter to add to their food!

about 6 months ago my RIR and GSL pecked my araucana and SLW to death. Now my GSL is pecking herself almost bare around her butt and where her tail used to be. I noticed my RIR is getting bare and redish around her face, whats wrong? Please help. they are about a year old, they still lay...
My 1 yr old GSL has been losing her tail feathers...I dont know if she is picking them out, or if they are falling. She is also getting skinnier...why?
They are around 8 months old....about 35sq ft...but i let them into the yard everyday for hours. I just feed them layer pellets and cracked corn..and a little oyster shell
Last week I noticed my EE was missing some feathers and was bleeding on her back ( about 2 in big ) it scabbed over, and she was fine. 2 days later they were back at it and pecked out her whole back (the size of my hand) to the bone. I had to kill her she could barely walk....So I have a GSL...
