Many herbivores had super thick skin and armour plates so they probably didn't have feathers.
My guess is they had at least some, perhaps on the non-armored parts of their bodies. These are the kinds of questions a window into the past would be very handy to have. Seeing dinosaurs IRL in their natural habitat would be fascinating!

New species of burrowing dinosaur found perfectly preserved in 'Cretaceous Pompeii'


Paleontologists in China have discovered a brand new species of burrowing dinosaur that dates back an estimated 125 million years ago.
The newly found dinosaur species was discovered in the Lujiatun Beds, located in northeast China in the Liaoning Province, in the oldest layers of the famous Yixian Formation which has produced several hundred preserved dinosaur skeletons over the past 20 years.
The fossils of the Changmiania liaoningensis were found perfectly intact and uninterrupted, suggesting to scientists that the animals were trapped by a volcanic eruption while they rested at the bottom of their burrows.
“The Lujiatun Beds would have been a kind of Cretaceous 'Pompeii',” said the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences in an article announcing the discovery.
The newly described species is thought to be the most primitive ornithopod dinosaur to date.
