I have a frizzle Sapphire Jewel female pullet born September 2nd of '25, and a Black Ameraucana (surprise cockerel boo-hiss) born September 8th of '25. They are two of 18 chickens.
This one Sapphire Jewel has a lot of feathers missing on her back. Does this seem to be the work of the jerk or a parasite?
