Hi- I have four hens and am getting 1-2 eggs a day and about 9 a week. They just turned 1. I have one hen that looks great. big and full, nice feathers.etc. Im pretty sure she is my consistent layer. another one looks great but is a little smaller. My 3rd hen is big in fat but has this bald spot on her back by her tail where she just cant seem to fill her feathers back in.
Number 4 looks awful. samllest hen. has struggled with molting. looked like her feathers were coming back but in the last week she has lost a lot. big patches on her back and her legs are pretty bald. she kind of seems crazy. runs around a lot. Not very social with the other girls. I let them out in the yard and she is always by her self.
They are eating well and always have food and fresh water.
any thoughts????
thanks
