Interesting. I am leaning towards taking them. I need to consider my set up. Can I let you know Monday or Tuesday?No clue?? Has been happening since day 1. She has picked feather from the time she was mailed here! Never had a feather plucker until now. I always feed nutrena feeds, and good healthy snacks since they are outside. So not really sure. Not sure how they could be bored out there. They have a tree, multiple roost around, and rocks and such to climb one. Lots of greens to eat at, placed to dig and dust bath. They have a nice little area to chill. Not boredom. Maybe parents stock had problems and bred them on?the little bearded one is the one who does the plucking
