I have a few chickens that have lost most of their feather. At first I thought it was a molt but I have one chicken that has been "naked" for a year. Now my rooster is losing his feather on the top of his legs and around his neck......What do I do? How do I stop it? I have separated them, I've put them back, I have 1 rooster and 1 naked bird and 4 that are starting to lose their back feather. They are all my 3-4 year old birds, I do plan on butchering all of those guys(in about a month) is this going to effect the meat any? How do I stop this feather loss from affecting my 4 two year old phoenixes and replacement flock 18 chickens and 5 turkeys that are 4 months old?
