Hi!
I just noticed that my two week old silkie chickens has this bald spot on her head. She’s the only one in the brooder who has it. Any ideas on what it could be? I don’t think it’s mites or lice as I keep them in my room and clean the brooder multiple times a day.
I personally have two theories
1. I just raised the heat plate a bit today. Maybe it was too low and caused her to lose some feathers on her head?
2. Her new feathers are coming In?
What do you guys think?
