Losing feathers

[masanders]

My 6 ISA Browns are losing feathers...not sure why. It's been in the upper 90's and humid.

Should I be worried?

how old are they?

 

[masanders]

About 3 months old.

chicks become fully feathered then at about 3-4 months old they molt, then their new feathers come and they won't molt till the next winter

Thank you so much! I know next to nothing about chickens. I'm taking care of them, but they are my mom's project. I'm getting educated in something new about them just about every day.

you're welcome i myself got a bit worried when our pullets starting loosing their feathers until i did some research

I have one year olds which are loosing their feathers on their backsides. What is causing this? They have bare spots.

like under their vent?

 

[Roberttodd]

Their entire butt
