Hi! Wondering if these feathers missing on this chicks neck is normal. None of my other chicks are having an Issue with it.

They are showing now.......who knows?
Sometimes chicks will have bare spots as they feather out, just part of the feathering process. I do see pinfeathers around that area, so hopefully in a few weeks it will have filled in. Watch for any feather picking, since chicks will peck at just about everything, a bare spot with pinfeathers may be attracting someones attention.
