    Hi Peeps61, no one else has symptoms, just these two and they are the lightest of the bunch. I spotted a Sumatra pulling out one of my dominiques feathers so she's in chick jail right now. Hoping she will be nicer tomorrow. Thanks for the advice the houdans have some blu kote on them now.

    Hi Friends, Got home today and my two houdans have large bare spots on their nicks. I have separated them from the others, is this pecking? What can I put on the bare spots? [/IMG]
