    Feather breakage and no rooster!

    That's what I thought from the beginnin:Pg I did not want to give them anything for worms so that they would become immune to it, but I had people telling me that I should:( For treats: they get lots of fruit and vegetable scraps just depending on what I have that day, mealworms occasionally...

    Ok. I could never really find when they should be de-wormed but I will stop giving it to them for awhile. I am going to try at night when they are a bit calmer but will be sure to post what I find!

    I do use the Durvette poultry de-wormer every other day (one scoop into 1 lb. of feed). Thank you for the link!

    All I can tell besides seeing more of their down is that the feathers seem to be broken off:/ Like, there are still their feathers there but the top portion is broken off.

    There has not been any fighting between them that I've noticed, but I suspected lice :( Is there a reason it eiuld be only on a few of them but not all?

    I feed them the Nutrena Naturwise laying feed if that helps.

    I've read different things about molting, but when should they start?

    It is hard to get good pictures of how it really looks especially when it's pretty cold out!

    Feather breakage and no rooster!

    I have 6 RIR and three of them have feather breakage on their backs by their tail... I don't have a rooster so I'm wondering if anyone knows what it could be and what I can do to help them?
