Turkey hen missing feathers on inner thighs and vent area

[Not-so-tough Farmer Mama]

She has no scratches or anything. Just bare white on her inner thighs and vent area. Any thoughts as to what could be going on? Thank you!

Pictures? And a bit more information about your hen would be helpful.

She could be plucking herself to have better contact with any eggs she's laying, or she could be rubbing them off if she's a bigger meat breed.

Thank you! What you said makes sense. She was getting broody. I never heard of them doing this! Thanks again
