My 1 hen of my flock of 25 has been losing feathers around her head for the last 3 MONTHS. I do not think molting is the issue as it should have finished by now. And I have checked her many times for any visible lice or mites. I am also leaning away from any lice or mites as my other 24 do not have any issues similar to this. The hen with said issue is in the top 3 of pecking order and I never see any forms of bullying or picking on her. She has also lost quite a bit of feathers on her chest
