This is an older picture, not a good one. My husband was just trying to get a pic of most of the girls. Penny is the white and black one, she's the one having the issues. Peaches is the cream and black one whom my husband said she may be doing some brooding too.

Kinda sounds like she is, although its weird that she is doing it before her first egg is she pulling out her feathers around her breastbone? I'd say just keep an eye on her if she starts getting where her eyes aren't bright, or she starts losing weight something more serious could be going on. Good luck!

Thank you! She has been after her feathers a bit. I'll keep a close eye on her. I'll try to get a good pic of how her wing drops. I felt like maybe she had an egg bound and it was hitting a nerve.
