I'm at a loss with my chicken's feather loss.
I've treated her for external parasites, although I've never seen any signs. She's a bit scraggly in the tail area as well, but not really dropping a lot of feathers. At first I thought she is just taking her sweet time molting, but the feather loss and damage is exclusively in that area. Some scratching, but not excessive. She's about 14-16 months old, and is the top hen.
