This chicken is loosing feathers instead of growing them and i have no experience with chickens help me out here. The cage was a shithole literally they were sleeping on crap, i fixed that today when my sister told me as i was not paying attention when i feed them to that. Also when they grow older they will live outside with other rooster and hens, cant let them out yet since they will die to predators. Anyway here are the pictures
Right now he is wet because it rained with wind, for now i put a sweater in a part of the cage so they can take cover but i think plastic will be the best solution. Im a bit worried that the others will bite him , i have heard stories that chicken bite others without feathers and they could cause a perforation, is that true?, should i put him in another cage? would rather not tho since when its time to put them outside i want them to stick together. Was the floor with crap the cause of this? How can i help him get his feathers back, im feeding with vitamin food if that matters
