My almost 1 year old hen doesn’t seem to be broody but this is my first year. I found her yesterday with the feathers gone from her neck and crop. I know they’ll pull from their breast area if broody but this seems higher up. I’ve inspected and find no signs of mites and it’s only her of my 4 affected. She’s laying daily and otherwise healthy. I switched to 18% feed last weekend bc I have a Brahma with a bare butt. Is she doing it to herself? Looks like some of her skin is bruised.
