Weird Bumps on Polish's Head. What Wrong?

no, i understood. she went bald in jan. when they molt is when it may come back. my chickens dont pick on the bald one so i dont treat it. it was done before i got her. and after i got her she regrew about 3 feathers.
 
just a little more info. i was thinking about the bald hen i have when i was in the coop today and decided to take a closer look after our convo and lo and behold, after all this time the feathers are starting to come in !! so, dont give up. my hen looked worse then yours

Yay! Thank you! :yesss:
 
This same thing has happened to my polish hen when she was young, and again recently when an aggressive young cockerel totally scalped her, and I found her in a ditched dazed and lethargic. I used Neosporin on the scalp wound for several days, then started using BluKote spray. The scalp wound was covered in a brown hard scab that fell off after 2 weeks, then underneath, the new feathers came in, and by 4 weeks she had head feathers and was good as new. You just have to keep them separated for several weeks so those new feathers aren't too tempting.
