I have a 4 month old Naked Neck rooster with about 35 other chicks his same age. He loves to eat the feathers off from the rest in the tail area. It's making me really mad cause most of the chicks don't have tail feathers anymore cause of him. I can't move him to another cage cause I have a cage for the older chickens and I don't want him to get pecked to death and I have another cage with 1 month old chicks and I dont want him to kill them...

What can I do? I always try to feed them alot and they always have full stomachs but he still loves eating feathers..
 
I have a rooster do that, I put peepers on and problem solved.
