Hi all! I have a mixed flock of 3 week old chicks and all has been well until this morning when I went to feed/clean I saw that two out of the 5 of the white crested polish chicks I have look to be missing half of their head plumage. I can see their skin and it is bright pink. This is my first flock and after reading, I'm wondering if they arent being pecked by the others. Any advice or experience with this type of scenario would be of so much help! I plan to continue to monitor, medicate their heads and if anything worsens, separate them into a small enclosure within the area so the other birds cant peck any longer. Could I be over reacting and they are just getting their new feathers in?.........worried mama
