good_egg Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Never go away!! I've come back with lots of questions! Dorothy seems to be loosing a lot of feathers at the moment. They were all over the run and they are almost floating off her as she FRs... Could she be moulting? She started laying in December and is about 1 year old now...

Luvachicken Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Sounds like it to me. I also have feathers everywhere but am not sure who it is. Gemma does have a bare belly, but they don't look like her colours. My other chickens moulted later in the Summer, not now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollyripkim Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Daisy my duck is moulting feathers all over the place but its quite sweet watching the sparrows gather them up. There must be some very snug baby sparrows somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi5 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Hi there! Has she been broody at all?? Martha my pekin cross has been broody on and off for 5-6 weeks actually more on than off Anyway she has been losing feathers all over the garden and they do moult after sitting/hatching or being persistiently broody!!!
