Hens standing tall

[lmadeline146]

I have 2 barred rock hens going through their first hard molts with the rest of my flock. They’re all hard molting except for the young hens, and I’m only getting 2-4 eggs a day out of 12 hens which I don’t mind since they’re molting. two of my hens who are missing feathers have been acting normal and walking fine but when they stand still they stand taller. Could this just be since they are cold? Its in the 40s F here. They look completely fine otherwise

If they were cold they'd more likely be hunched down.
