Why the bald bottom?

| One of my chickens has a chronically bald bottom. Her tailfeathers also dont look great. Ive treated all chickens and the coop for mites, but this bald bum has persisted. All her sisters are in good health and have no feather loss, I've never seen any bullying and we dont have a rooster. Area is soft (not egg bound). Im out of ideas, does anyone have advice?
