tail feather loss

[CJONESFAY]

My rooster has lost all his tail feathers and the hens keep plucking out the new ones......not sure why he has lost all his tail feathers but he is bare butt rooster.....any ideas? And I have two other roosters that do not have this problem

Can you post a few pictures of him?

Sorry to hear about your rooster...is there any chance the other boys are harassing him?

Hello and welcome to active posting on BYC! Nice to meet you.
I, too, would look to the other roosters or even higher ranking hens just harassing him. Do you have a lot of space?
