    losing feathers, has dry skin, dry nub whats happening?

    I have a black gold chicken hen about 6 years old. She has frizzled wing feathers and dry skin, pin feathers sticking out of her stomach and wings, and a dry skin nub at base of tail losing feathers. What is wrong?

    It is safe DE and I will add some regular dirt to it. I have potting soil but it has fertilizer in it. I will try to find some earth around the house that isn’t all clay. I have some sand around the sprinkler system that’s not working right now. I can enlarge some dog holes!!
