Hello, I have my first flock of 7 Buff Orpingtons, 7 Australorps, and 1 Random breed we believe is a polish. The flock is nearly split down the middle with roos and hens, theyre only 5 weeks old so I still have all of them.
Anyways, some of my birds (mainly the Roos and more so the australorp roos) are loosing body feathers and they nearly have none on their backs. mostly all of their wing feathers are there. I don't know what to do being as this is my first flock. put of the 15 I would say that maybe 4-5 are like this, some worse than others.
Please, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
