Feathers missing

[Moby75165]

Not sure is this is Rooster aggression, or something else. Any assistance would be appreciated.

It looks like a rooster did that to your hens. You need to separate your roo from the hens.

I kind of thought that’s what it was.
So he just lives by himself?

Have you trimmed his spurs? How many hens does he have?
Does he appear to be unnecessarily rough? They may have poor feather quality. You can use a higher protein feed. (Around 20% protein grower feed with oyster shell on the side.)

Well, not forever. You may need more hens. You may also want to get the hens saddles.
