whats wrong with this chick?

[flossyandprissy]

Shes got a bald spot on both sides on the neck/shoulder area. Overcrowding is not an issue. Just got her today. Didnt notice it til now. Dont think it was there this morning.

I am not sure....

But I would call it normal, but keep an eye on it and see if it get worse or changes.

probably feather pecking from itself or the others. ive seen some of my chicks eat the fluff of the others.

I noticed that my BPR also had a bald spot on a similar location. She scratches herself and chirps a lot. I think (hope) there won't be a problem, but we'll just have to see.

I noticed that there is relatively bare spot on them in the same general area, right near where the wing meets the back...all of them had it. If there no irritation, I wouldn't worry about it.
