Chimney chipping 
The Chimney is being chipped away little by little in various spots, it seems as if the outside face of the red brick is just being shaved off by the elements of weather. How can I re-patch the faces of these bricks around the chimney, and with what? it almost looks as if birds are pecking at different bricks along the top and base of chimney.

Re: Chimney chipping 
Your right the brick are being broken down by the elements. The problems you are describing happen most often from water penetration. As far as patching the brick the only thing to do is replace them. Check the chimney cap for cracks and seal the new brick with a quality sealer and the problem should not come back.
