Any tips to stop a 2wk old L Sussex chick plucking the foot and leg feather out of my Brahmas?
They all hatched together, they've got lots of room, and they have a good quality chick crumb ad lib, but so far I've got 3 Brahmas and a FCMarans with bloodied legs (now purple).

To complicate things I'm off on holiday tomorrow for a week.

Are they under a lamp or with a mummy?

Under a lamp.

I think a lot of feather legged chicks seem to get this - even some of my little sabelpoots tried pulling their own leg feathers off

Have a wonderful holiday and try not to fret too much.

Thanks all.
