Do you have a roo? Is she lower in the pecking order?

Feather picking is probably the reason for the feather loss… And or rooster damage.

Can't be self picking as its only on the head... I dont believe its the rooster bevause of this too... its completely fine everything past her head...

I seem to have a fetish for old posts, but I keep finding really excellent ones! I’m very curious about how this turned out. Did you figure out what was causing the feather loss?

Wrll obvi somebody was picking her! If not the roo... then who??.

You know, I would swear that another bird was responsible for the feather loss, but then about a week ago, a rooster of mine started going bald in his solitary hospital pen! On his head, just like this girl. I’m wondering if it could be a symptom of something I’m missing…
