Can we have better side-view pics?What breed is this rooster?
Wow thanks!
I got them recently for free he had to add the rooster to stop the hens from fighting each other not all of them are like this and some are growing like spikes with tufts of feathers coming out and some fluff however some havent changed at all any advice on what i should do?This hen needs some major help to recover from that seriously angry skin.. have you searched them or treated for parasites yet? That doesn't LOOK like over mating. Did they suffer a predator attack, prior bullying or anything like that?

Is she laying any eggs? Do you know their age at all? How long have you had them?
Only 3 to 6 out of 22 hens lay eggsI got them recently for free he had to add the rooster to stop the hens from fighting each other not all of them are like this and some are growing like spikes with tufts of feathers coming out and some fluff however some havent changed at all any advice on what i should do?
If you are in the US.. use a "flock raiser" (20% protein) or "grower" (18% protein) feed and put oyster shell on the side for the active layers. This will improve the birds overall condition and help them recover more quickly if they are currently getting layer. The difference in my flock's molting routine since making the switch has been very convincing.. They molt softer, return to lay sooner, and don't withdrawal like before.some are growing like spikes with tufts of feathers coming out and some fluff however some havent changed at all any advice on what i should do?
