My chicken is a 35 weeks old Barred Rock that lost feathers on her neck. I thought it was molting because they are growing back but isn't she a bit young for that? She just started laying again. Do you think she was being pecked or was it actually molting?
 
My chickens are molting now, and it started with just around their neck area. Have you checked for mites or lice?
 
This is a couple weeks after it started, she started to grow back some feathers Got some pics
