I have 8 hens, all of which have lost most feathers on their backs, showing bare chicken skin, I see them picking at each other from time to time but could it be some kind of mites, any help would be appreciated. thanks.

Once they stop eating and drinking, they usually are dying. The best thing you can do right now is get her under heat. Sick and or dying birds are very cold. So at least she will be comfortable. Take her inside the house, put her in a basket and put a heat lamp on her. I am so sorry.Thank you for the words of advise. One of my hens will not eat or drink and appears to just want to sleep now, started yesterday, looking really drab. I think she is dying and I don't know what to do to help her.
