My chook is moulting

Hey There! It’s been a while yeah so, Snowy (Purebred Light Sussex) started her first moult. How should i approach this situation? Her behaviour has changed a bit. She has been broody for a few weeks, and stopped laying eggs. our yard is covered in feathers, and she has many pin feathers on her back. We checked our other hens, but they seemed fine.

Odd to happen this time of year, unless you live in the southern hemisphere.
But can happen after broodiness.

Nothing special needs to be done, just a good diet and time.

Yep, molting time.
