The new guy here

Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.
If you had three roosters with 8 girls and are now down to just one rooster, it's undoubtedly rooster damage that caused the feather loss. The feathers will not come back until they molt.
The feather lost didn't start until after they were without a rooster. I had moved them to my daughter's house for 3 months while we were on vacation. Now are back home for 4 months but feather loss got worse. The rooster has only been here for about 3 weeks.

How much room did they have at your daughters house? If they were short on space and stressed from the move, feather picking may have started. That is a tough habit to break. Again, the feathers won't return until they molt.
