new chickens

[Kernel Cluck]

Chicken disease is not my strong suit. However, seems awfully suspicious that they all have feather loss. Have you checked them for mites?

That was one of my first concerns and we are soon going to begin deworming and dusting for mites and also treating them for scaley legs. Why it was my first guess was because when got to the breeders place almost every single one had feather loss.. we only took them in hopes that they would be better off with us and hopes we could save them.. pooor girls...
