    Molting? What is wrong?

    What’s going on with my girls? All super active and clean, zero signs of mites. Full access to oyster shells and high quality, Kalmbach feed. Are they just molting? They are about 12 months old now, and no rooster.

    Chicken has bald back. Not mites or molting.

    Background: I have a hen who is definitely on the bottom of the pecking order, ever since she was introduced with 2 others a year ago (we followed all the rules of integrating chickens). She previously had a pecking wound on her head that I was able to heal. She is still picked on regularly and...
