My Cochin bantam just recently started brooding or atleast I'm assuming that's what she has been doing since she refuses to leave the coop. I decided to try and get her out of her broody state and set her outside. I noticed she was missing quite a lot of feathers on her belly and she had a red mark and a weird dark blue spot on her chest. Makes me worried! Anyone seen anything similar? Perhaps she is molting or brooding but the spot worries me. No idea what it's from. I put a little coconut oil on her belly hoping that helps?!
