Losing Feathers

[gene22222222]

I have chickens 13 weeks old and 16 weeks old. they seem to be losing a lot of Feathers. Does anyone know if this is normal?

Young birds go through a few small molts, replacing baby feathers with adult feathers, so as long as they aren't getting bald looking it's normal.

Also check for any bugs on the skin; if there are any, it could be mites and/or lice.
