    Like, by the other hens? I've never seen any of them peck at her.

    Mystery: losing feathers

    I feel terrible that she looks so bad. She is a spicy little thing and likes to make sure everyone knows she's in charge so I don't think it's pecking from other chickens.

    Mites or molting? New chicken mom here!

    Thank you for replying! I didn't notice, but yes the feathers do look broken. I do not have a rooster but the hen at the top of the pecking order looks 100% fine. Could she be bullying the others? If so, do they maybe need more space or free ranging?

    Thanks for replying!! So it's normal that she hasn't laid in 1.5 weeks? I only free range when I'm with them due to predators, so I know she isn't hiding them.

    Hi all. New chicken mom here. I have a flock of 4 (an ISA brown, black sexlink and two Easter eggers). About 3 weeks ago my ISA started laying beautiful brown eggs every day. Well one day my black sexlink was showing all the signs. And that afternoon I got a second much lighter brown egg. I...
