I have caught them pecking sometimes. I was just worried about the bums being featherles and if normal or not it is about -9 outside lately does weather play a factor I am new at this
I have about 8 chcikens out of 23 that have no feathers on their bums and right at the tail feathers why is this happening are the contagious of some disease.
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
