So, I hatched some coturnix quail 5 days ago, and one never stopped looking slightly damp even though it had dried off. In the past couple of days I've noticed that it is now missing patches of fluff on its back and chest, and then saw that when it scratches itself, it's feathers fall out. Its behavior seems perfectly healthy, and it does not seem to be in any pain, and none of the other chicks seem to be having this issue.
Do I just need to clean the chick? Is it possible that it was born with some sort of skin condition?
