Hi everyone. I have a Barred Rock chicken who has a bald underside. Not around the flute but between her legs. She seems healthy other then this. I got here and one other BR when they were about four months old. As soon as I brought them home they went into molt. Now they have been laying very consistantly for about one month. She is still laying so I don't think it's molt again. I have 6 other chickens and none of them have any signs of this problem. Well I am guessing it's a problem, but maybe it's normal. This is my first experience with chickens. They look like they have been plucked. But I have not seen the other chickens pecking at her. Here are a few pictures. Any feedback is appreciated.
You can see in the pics that there are some big feathers that look like they are emerging. Any ideas???
