catherinedon Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 My wyndotte (WINEGUM ) last week finished 2 weeks of baytril for mycroplasma and is no very well During her course of antibiotics she looked like she was molting. Im new to this since Aug so have not experienced molting yet. Lots of white feathers in nest box and on ground and came off in my hand when i picked her up. However over a week later she doesnt seem to be loosing any more and still has a full coat of feathers. slight are of thinning just below top of head. Does this mean she only had a mini molt or isnt finished yet ? She has never layed yet but should start soon hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 She wont have a full moult in her first year but a mini moult is quite common, it could also have been bought on by the stress of being ill If the feather loss has slowed down it sounds like she wll be just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
