Lime tree loss of leaves

Hi all, we recently purchased a small seedless lime tree and tangerine tree from a local nursery about a month Ago. I planted them both in ideal sunlight and used chicken manure as fertilizer on top. Just recently the lime tree has been losing a lot of leaves but it looks like new buds are starting to grow in place, I water them about once a week and I noticed the lime tree lose more leaves after last watering. I don't notice the leaves turning yellow or being eaten by any bugs, just trying to figure out what is causing the drop in leaves, I'm located in SoCal so the climate is ideal but it has been very windy recently. By looking at the pictures you can see the tangerine tree is better off but I water them both the same
