Why did a chicken die it had most feathers gone from its back?
The chicken may have died from picking. This happens when the hens are bored, overcrowded, or have lack of protein in their diet so they result to cannibalism, beginning with feather picking, or plucking the feathers from other chickens. Another reason is from breeding. A rooster may find a "favorite" hen and mate her continually, mounting on her back each time and wearing the feathers out.
