Mr Rhode Island Red Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Mr RIR here with a question about moulting. Jessie has had this ring aroung her neck that is just bare skin and no feathers for the past 2 months now. I think its a neck moult, but I just think that the feathers should grow back quicker. How do I get her feathers back? All replies welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 When they moult, most the protein that hens gets helps new feathers, that why egg production drops or stops. You can add some poultry spice or poultry drink or apple cider vinegar to their drinking water. I think you can also stick a clove of garlic in their drinking water, to help boost their immune system to help them fight colds and things that they can become prone to during the moult. Hope i helped! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
