Angels4 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Ethel is going through a bit of a moult and her comb/wattles are looking considerably pale. Is this due to the growth of new feathers? Should I give the girls a bit of chopped up egg for protein? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 One of my girls is very pale too, I am upping her protein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 My bluebelles wattle shrank and almost disapppeared when she moulted, it was quite dramatic It gradually came back up and became the normal colour when her feathers came back. I treated her to more mealworms during her moult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
