I have a thread about this but now it's gotten bigger. My BO has baldness around her comb and she has no mites or any type of bug in her feathers from what I can see. I havent seen anybody peck her feathers on her head in day but at night they may hit eachother a few times but I dont know. Anything I can do?
 
Your rooster is mating with her. Roosters usually try and mate with every member of the flock. Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not happening - but that really seems like what’s happening.

He barely mates with anyone except my australorp. Morning, afternoon sometimes night but barely.
 
Here's the pictures

How do you know? Are you constantly around?
Usually morning, afternoon and night I'm with them or just checking up on them for food and water and I only see him mate my australorp. Plus my BO either runs from him or puts her neck feathers up at him if he wants to mate her.
