Hello y’all I’m new here and new to raising chickens in general so seeking so insight!
I recently transitioned my fully feathered 6 week old Brahmas to their coop. I checked on my girls this evening and I noticed one of them kept messing with her back. I looked at her and she has a patch where all her feathers are gone and the skin is dry and crusty. Otherwise she acts fine. Eating and drink as normal.
I wasn’t sure if this is something that could be stress related or something that needs to be treated.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you
