We hatched 10 chicks about a month ago. We for sure have two roos. A couple of the pullets have almost no back feathers, and 1 pullet has absolutely no tail left, and is bleeding. This is shocking to me, because our first flock we got almost a year ago have NEVER done anything like this. they are in a 4ft.x4ft pen, but during the day they get outside in a 6x8 pen. I have heard to give them more protein, but would really like some advice. Also, is this most likely the roos that are doing the picking? We have never had a roo before. Thank you..
