There are no other roos in the coop. He did have a few mites last week, and I gave him a good covering of DE.
There are new feathers coming in in that area, and that is where it's irritated.

My husband is ready to take him to the vet, but I don't...

We have a JG Blue Rooster who is about 10 months old. He seems to be having some sort of an issue on his neck. The feathers almost look sort of soft and thinning and he has what looks like a couple sores. Is he moulting at this age...
They are here and all is well. Maria had put in apples and corn for them. Now they are settled in in the quarantine cage for the time being. I want them inside to get used to us handling them. They are cute. Here's a quick picture of them.
