Parasites can cause this....have your vet check them out regardless. It could also be a dominance thing....whereby they pick at one another, or, it could also be they are molting and while they'll lose that downy soft plumage, their adult feathers are starting to appear.

sometimes the dominant one will pull the other ones feathers out..its a sign of aggression.

they are more than likely molting. it is when they shed their feathers and grow new ones. it is 100% normal
