My hen Baby has been sitting around alot. She eats and drinks but not off with the rest of the flock.I have been seeing alot of feathers laying in the coop and run.I think there is a few molting.She is towards the bottom of the pecking order and has deformed feet.She is around 2 yrs old. Could moulting cause this behavior? I worry about her, she is one of my favorite.

Yes, this happens to some of my hens. Not sure if it's normal or not, but I don't think it's a big deal. And of course, I could be completely wrong because I'm not an expert (: good luck
