Molting?

[Zobot0110]

My chickens have feathers falling out, but it is spring time. This is my first go around with chickens. Is there something wrong with them or something I need to do? Thank you for your help.

Do you have a cockerel or rooster?

Do other birds have similar damage? Could be picking damage if they're not being mounted by a dominant bird.

Oh, spring feather loss can be a light molt, which is normal. Give them protein a bit (mealworms) and check for mites or pecking. If they’re active and eating, they then should be fine!
