Our little BSL is the odd one of the group. She acts fine and chickeny but now it's some bald spots. On her neck and around the base of her wings are sparse to bare. They aren't irritated at all and she seems to be feathering just fine everywhere else (she's slower than the other breeds overall but is also the first to be getting real feathers on her head). She is the smallest but I don't see her getting picked on or ostracized. She's also a bit sneezy but not all the time and no runniness.
Any suggestions? Most of the posts i've found about bald spots seem to say don't worry unless it's red/swollen.
 
That is not a nice thing to say!

4 are sex links, the other 2 are ameracauna/EEs...they are the funniest ones, I don't want to have to get rid of one.

They seem to be harder to sex, though, right?
My neighbors just got 2 new chicks today, said if we wanted more we could add them to their new babies...maybe I need to go get a back up chick!

but but but...it's supposed to be a black sex link! I thought you meant that one of the others might be a roo and was picking at her. I'm still considering a back up chick....or 2.
