Possible mites?

[smalls]

I was cleaning up Amethyst's pasty butt earlier and I noticed that it looked like the other chicks have plucked a couple feathers out. Possibly in transportation, since the delivery people kept all the chicks four weeks and younger together. She also has a featherless patch going down featherless patch going down her belly. Could this be mites?

I am not too familiar with mites, but I know that there is a section on the discussion board where people discuss mite and other pest problems. There was also an article posted to the site a couple weeks ago.

I would recommend that you also post in the other section. Wish I could be more help ...

I made a thread in that section, hopefully I can get some help...

Great... Pictures are usually helpful for these types of issues. If it isn't mites someone might be able to diagnose based on a pic.

Good luck.
