Molting or injured?

[ilovemychickies]

Hi all! I have a leghorn hen who has a huge chunk of feathers that have either fallen out or gotten yanked out on her neck and her wing. There are so many gone that you can see her skin without peeling back the feathers. Mom and I weren't sure if she was in a fight or if she is just molting. There don't seem to be any other injuries on her, and she is eating just fine. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

If you can post a pic it might help to determine which it might be.

If you see pin feathers, she is moulting, if it's just bare raw skin, somebody has done some pecking on her.

There are pin feathers so I guess then that she is just molting. Phew! That's a relef. I will try to post a pic later. I gotta figrure out how to.

Thanks y'all.
