Hi there! Meet Pepper! She's about two years old. We're located in TAS, Australia.
Recently, I've discovered she has a really, really saggy line of skin from her chest to her abdomen. It's like a broody patch but she isn't broody! I've felt it and it's just...loose skin and it doesn't seem to bother her at all. She's still laying, still roosting, eating and drinking fine and teaching the pullets their place in the pecking order.
Any idea what this could be? Her crop seems normal too - not pendulous, full at night and so on. No fatigue, normal poops (except recently from a heatwave) and so on. I tried to get some photos.
