I just got 2 hens from a local girl. She brought them to me yesterday. I noticed that their feathers near their tail were looking thin. I asked if that was rooster damage but she said no she just thinks they're ruffled from traveling. I did give them a quick look over and didn't see signs of lice or mites, but I need to do a better inspection. They both have scaley leg mites which I'm treating. Currently they are nervous for me to hold them but seem to have sweet dispositions. I also have them separated from my leghorn. If you can tell anything from the photos I'd appreciate your input. Sorry their not better photos.
