so I'm a first time chicken owner but I've had my girls since they were chicks and raised them since late winter last year however they were inside when they were chicks, so I haven't experienced winter for my chickens yet! I recently noticed that my buff Orpington named ginger is losing A LOT of feathers. I know they are supposed to molt and lose feathers gradually in the fall time but it's getting down to 25 now here in Arkansas at night and I'm worried about her. She has White patches all over and especially losing them around her neck! They always have food and water and I have two chicken coops. One set up that is heated and lit with nesting boxes and the other for food water and treats! My other girls seem just fine! Please let me know if there is something I should be worried about!
