GenBond Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hi 2 of my three hybrids ( they are just under 2 years old):have moulted in the past months, and particularly when my Sussex star was moulting I found white specs, a bit like husks that I assumed were tiny bits of the feather shaft from her moulting. Didn't think anything of it, but now she seems to be over her moult ( but not laying) and I have seen the white bits again. Is it what I think it is, or could it be something else? Thanks for any advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 yes your right she could still be growing the downy feathers I find a few of my mob look like they have re grown their feathers only for a few days or a weeks to go by and I notice they have a lot of pin feathers under the outer layer when they have a good old shake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
