Chicken bald spot - any advice please?

Hi All,

 

I need some help if anyone has any advice. Penny has a bald spot on her back just before the base of her tail feathers and it is getting bigger! There is no sign of a cause of irritation, I think she has just started pecking at it herself and as the feathers start to grow back they are irritating her and she is pecking more thus making the spot bigger.

 

I have tried the purple peck spray and also the stockholm tar. Any other suggestions before she looks completely oven ready would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks
