Hello !!,
I think a couple of my hens have chicken mites; my Red Sex link backside is loosing feathers and becoming raw. I have also noticed a raw area right between the eyes of my buff polish she constantly has her head in the dirt; pics attached. I do not think Goldie, the RSL, is molting she is just 13 months and I think it's too soon? She is not acting any differently good appetites as always and good energy level. The coop is about 200 sq ft and houses 7 hens. I do not see this on any of the other 5 girls right now. If chicken mites, I think I need to treat Goldie and Crackhead(the Polish) and then treat coop too. I don't think another chicken is plucking her feathers because despite her size, she is the Boss-got love a red head!!! I have attached some pictures, any help would be greatly appreciated
