My easter egger Mildred got a very bad pecking about 3 months ago, we nursed the wound etc...the scab came off and she still has a bald spot? After 3 months!! Will she ever get feathers again? Is ther anything I could do for her??

OH and we don't have a rooster...

Feed her high protein food or even a handful of cat food every other day to help.

The already get a TON of protein, but I'll isolate during "protein treat" time and make sure she eats her share of it, maybe she's not eating as much as I think she is

Her new feathers will come in the next time she molts. There is nothing you can do about it right now.

When she does molt (and the others) make sure you give lots of extra protein and their feathers will be georgeous.

The whole flock is 7-10 months old. They haven't molted yet...when do you think I should expect it to happen...dread...
