    Feather loss in the rear....

    My Salmon Faverolle seems to have lost her feathers only around her bum area..I thought maybe this was the beginning of her molt, but no other areas seem to have any feather loss. You can already see new growth coming in, but I wasn't sure if this was normal or not? Thanks for any help.
