My Polish chick (14 weeks) looks like a monk, he has feathers on his head but for a round bald spot in the middle. Here's a picture, but it's not too good.
He's real skittish, so I haven't picked him up to look closer and, quite frankly, my eyes aren't so good and I'd need a magnifier to tell if it was bugs or something. None of the other birds peck at him and he doesn't seem to itch. I'm tempted to put some neosporin on it but wouldn't want to aggravate anything. I have trimmed his 'bangs' so he can see and he's just so spunky--looks like dreadlocks. Thanks for any advice.
