I have one chick 12 days old and one 10 day old.My 12 day old has been picking its wing and tail feathers since it was about 3 days old.its getting pretty bad doesnt have many left.I have noticed the other ones wing feathers are being picked at now.They dont act sick or stressed they seem like happy little silkie chicks.Im not sure but I think they are picking themselfs.I tried to seperate them to see if the picking would stop but that only lasted about 5 min.they wouldent stop chirping until they were together again.I need to do something or they wont have any wing or tail feathers left.
