I thought my oldest hen Luna was molting but now I'm not to sure, because she has lost all the feathers on her back. Is this normal or are the others hens picking on her?
 
I don't have a rooster and no I haven't seen any blood, She is 1 year and 7 months old this is her first molt since being a little baby.
 
If she has not had a molt since she started laying eggs, I would assume (in answer to your original post) that she has begun to molt. They get their first BIG molt between 18-24 months.
