Lost feathers; Roo is gone

[DebAnneDigi]

This hen was his favorite. Roo is gone about 2weeks. Some are saying depluming mites. How do I know? If so, what and how do I treat. Do all need to be treated? Coop, etc and what product is used? First pic is one in question the others are for how other hens look.
Thank you

It's not depluming mites. Your rooster caused the feather loss due to over-treading the hen. The feathers will regrow after molt. No worries.

Poor girl! I bet she's glad he's gone! She should recover but regrowing feathers may take some time. Maybe put a saddle on her to keep that area from getting cold/pecked by other hens as the feathers come in.

Thank you I was having a rough time trying to research.

Me too, my legs are all marked up. I’m giving her some extra protein. Top round. I’ll purchase some feather fixer today; thank you so much, this eases my head, lots!

My Polish hen looks similar because of my Rooster, I am growing him 5 more pullets so she gets a break. I'm glad I saw this post because I was wondering when her feathers would come back

I sent my rooster to someone local who adores roosters. Home for wayward roosters. Now hatching some eggs.

Good luck, I will try hatching eggs soon. He's a green egger so I'm curious what eggs his offspring would have.
