johnandkymberley Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Hi, i originally thort petal had scaly leg but on more closer inspection i think she is moulting, is this normal at this time of year? and some scales have come off and they leg is now (in places) pink and new looking, sorry if this is thick but is this right? i havent experienced this so far so just need a little bit of help xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Its a little early for moulting but many poultry owners are reporting early moults this year so nothing to worry about Just dont pick at the scales and she should be fine Chooks are more touch sensitive when moulting so avoid excess handling if you can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
