Do y’all think this is molting? My girls are 13 months old so it seems a little early for their first molt but I noticed two of them with bald patches on their chest for the past month or two. Located in central Texas so the weather is warm.

Their skin looks fine and I don’t see anything (like mites) crawling on their skin or vents.
