mark_lowe Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I have just notiched that 2 of my chickens have lost feathers under there breast. They are both the same age and all my other chickens look fine. Anything I should be worried about? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fujcube Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hi, A couple of mine are doing the same, it's just a moult and I wouldn't be too concerned about it. My Light Sussex looked like she had been plucked for the oven, thankfully she's beginning to grow back!! My Lavender Aracauna also went into a winter moult. When I first went into their house, and I saw all the feathers, I thought she had been attacked! She's now starting to grow back and is still laying her beautiful blue eggs.
