This was to be fourth / last year of linebreeding back to that hen. I wanted to have several pullets to choose from as replacements. Only one now; no backups until bred up.

If there's no sign of mites or lice then I would say hens picking feathers. Watch em closely. I bet one of the hens is doing it. Peepers work but I've had a hen start doing it again after a few months with peepers on.
