Hi this is Remy, his feathers around the neck area seem kind of scant. No other chicken is currently losing feathers more so I see signed of mites? The feathers are also kind of hard. Should I be worried or just give him a bath?

How old is he? Are there pinfeathers coming in, the angle makes it hard to tell?
The feathers may be getting worn or broken off from putting his head through fence or wire, trying to get to something on the other side. They look very evenly worn for it to be from feather picking.
