My girl tiana is just over a year now and she's bald on the top of the head? Still lays eggs and is definitely grumpy. Still eats and drinks and acts normal. I do have three roosters however two are still very young so not sure if they are going after her or if they would specifically take out head feathers? Should I hear concerned or let it ride out? (To be clear i do plan to be rid of 2 of 3 roosters soon)

The other chickens are picking at her. It can also be a result of roosters over-breeding her.
Only one of my roosters is mating anyone the other two are still too young. They don't even crow yet. Do we think this a result of bullying? I haven't seen it myself and she's the only one missing head feathers but that sounds a lot better than finding out she has a disease or something

It’s just a result of bullying. Frizzles especially get bullied a lot.
