Sister wants to know if this chicken is sick, I don't believe it is ill. I think this is feather picking, sometimes caused by over crowding and sometimes caused by not enough protein in the diet. It may be moulting but it is the wrong time of year for that so I think the other chickens are picking at her for what ever reason.
Betty had posted this 3 days ago and some how I missed it, she also sent me a photo by email a few weeks ago and I thought she was joking.

I think she may be a little better. It started in the other pen...I bet I had too many chickens. I don't have as many now and I am letting them out everyday to eat green grass. They love it. They run to me like pets.
