I have a group of 32 chicks that are 8 weeks old today. I noticed on their backs that some are bare or looks like new growth of adult feathers. Is their backs the last to fill out with feathers or is this something I should be concerned about? In all other aspects they are fine and healthy. These are a mix of RIR, Red Star, Austrolorps (sp???), and Black Wyandottes. Sorry no pics. Technically Challenged!! Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Elizabeth
