I think there is another similar post to this floating about but I'll ask anyway as it's a bit different...

 

Seems to be one thing after another at the moment! My 3 gingernuts are all on high protein and greens diet on the advice of the lovely Barbara as they have been eating their knicker feathers. They're gaining weight now and a few feathers seem to be coming back... I think...

 

One of them, Hilda, has been a bit odd in the last week. She's making an almighty racket when she lays - and I mean very loud! Couple of times there has been no egg at all, couple of times a very small egg (think mini egg size!) then the last 2 days softies that's she's doing on the rootsting bars, not in the nesting box.

 

She's happily free ranging, eating and drinking.

 

Any ideas? Only other thing I can see is a little lump on her bare bottom, looks like it's a raised feather follicle, like an in grown hair kind of thing. It's no where near her vent though. Oh and someone - can't tell who though - seems to have a bit of a bad tummy!

 

They are fed layers, they have tuna, spinach, live yoghurt and grass often to try and prevent the feather eating too.

 

Any help appreciated!
