Is this molting?

[KatefromOz]

Hello! One of my chickens has started to lose heeeeaps of feathers (my backyard is covered in festhers). I'm in Australia so we have just come into Autumn so I know that's common molting time. I have attched a picture...does this look like a molt? I think this girl is only 10 months old. Another one of my girls had a few lice on her last week so we trrated all the chooks for lice. Any advice would be appreciated.

I think it is a molt. We rescued a bunch of tetras from a factory, and they were !!NAKED!! for a month or two. It looks just like our hens.
