Out of 8 chickens, I have two where the feathers on their head are dwindling away. Then one of them has a bunch of broken Feathers on her wing and many around her neck.
I don’t have a rooster, and I have seen others peck at them but nothing more than that.
Could I have a disease issue?
 
They are 2 years old
They eat chicken food and a scratch
I don’t see any mites
They have a chicken run and an add on that is a large dog run.
7 chickens in this space
I was thinking they might be molting but it seems like they molted 6-7 months ago.

What's the protein on the feed? How much scratch do they get?
