My chick is a few weeks old & seems to be losing its feathers. It seems happy & healthy running around with its parents, eating & drinking well. But it looks so mangy! Is there anything I can do?
Is my chick ok?

The worst is a bald spot on her head...
They are just losing their fluff and getting ready to grow some real feathers...the 'bald' spots will fill in soon.

They'll go thru a couple kinda ugly phases before they get their full adult plumage...then the 18 month molts can be really ugly.
