My black sexlink chicks are about 3 to 4 weeks old. These are my first batch and I am granted frieking out. They have fully devoloped wing feathers and are starting to them on the backs and heads. Their getting bald under their wings. Is this normal? I mean some of them are exctremely bald. Is this a sign of mights or am I frieking out for no reason? Sorry I have no pics I don't get how to put them on here. Thanks!
 
They are just growing out of their baby fuzz and not yet growing all their regular feathers. Don't worry they will fill in.
 
Don't worry they will grow out of it.My Millie's I got from TSC a couple month's ago lost a lot of back feather's.At first I thought was pecking but they are feathered good now and in their new coop all happy.I have raised chick's about 6 year's and never seen so many bare chick's as this year.A few of the duckwing's I got had some too.But they are doing good now.
