Bare Backed/winged Hen. Will her Feathers Grow Back??

[rhino533]

My Hen has a bare back/wings because of to many roosters in the coop. They were jumping her to much. I since fixed that problem (Roasted Chicken tasted great)!!! My question is will she ever grow new feathers where she's bare when she molts? She is 8 months old and hasn’t molted yet that I've noticed. I live in a permanently warm/hot climate does this change molting patterns?

Yes, the feathers will grow back. It may take awhile but it will happen. If you still have a rooster in with her then you might want to consider putting a chicken saddle on her. That will prevent the rooster from doing anymore damage while she is growing her feather back.

My girls feathers are finally growing back (four months after getting rid of Bill). It'll happen, just give it time.
