What is wrong with his feathers?

I've had some chicks feather in very odd patterns. How old is he? The juvenile molt can result in some funny looking chickens. I had one BO, last year, feather in like a porcupine. Clusters of down, patches of feathers, and patches of short quills as the new feathers grew in. It could very well be an odd molt. If that's the case, and you look underneath the down, you should see little quills where the new feathers are coming in.
He’s about 5 weeks or so. He’s a BO mix. Thanks for the reply.
