Hello wonderful backyard chicken people.
I have a young pekin bantam rooster. He has been crowing for about 3 weeks now. About two weeks ago he got a little too enthusiastic for the girls so I put him in another yard by himself. It was a veggie patch until recently so he had plenty of great bugs to find.
I noticed today that he is starting to miss neck feathers. I am wondering if any one has an idea why?
I looked and couldn't see any insects under his feathers. I wonder if it is stress.
I tried to take a photo but it was hard to catch the right spot on him.
