Treekeeper Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Well we came home from our week in the Highlands and I went out to check the chooks but they were already in bed! Went out on the sunday morning to find the Cream Legbar as bald as a coot, no sign of any blood and they are all getting on OK with none of the previous pecking problems. Can they have a localised moult? There are new quills pushing through and she is just carrying on regardless there's no bullying going on and she has started vocalising quite a bit but still no eggs from her. Forgot to add her comb has grown and is now much redder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Sounds like she has had a major moult. Why not try her with some extra protein to help her feathers grow a bit quicker. Rinsed tuna (dolphin friendly!), scrambled egg or organic cat food are all useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treekeeper Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 I've got some poultry spice so I'll try and give her that as well as the other stuff as suggested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
