Provided is a development device and an image forming apparatus that realize high image quality with improved decrease in density at high speed development and with reduced occurrence of development hysteresis (ghost) in the hybrid developing method having a plurality of toner carriers, by reducing the decrease in the toner supplying ability to the downstream-side toner carrier, which decrease is caused by the supply of toner to the toner carrier on the upstream side in the rotating direction of the developer carrier. By providing a magnetic pole between main magnetic poles, of the developer carrier, facing the toner carriers, a magnetically raised bristle of developer is moved by a magnetic force, while the developer in which development hysteresis due to supplying toner to the upstream-side toner carrier occurred is conveyed to supply toner to the downstream-side toner carrier, whereby the developer layer is stirred.
