Moulting
« on: July 09, 2017, 19:41 »
Evening all

One of my twelve chickens is moulting like there is no tomorrow and none of the other 11 are showing any signs of it. I have checked her over for mites etc but showing nothing. Housing is all clean as I clean them out everyday. There has been no change in their diet either.
I know they go through their annual moult but it seems a. It early as they came to POL about 4 months ago.

Any thoughts would be greatly received

Alex

A couple of mine are moulting already, so I don't think there is anything wrong  :)

It makes more sense to moult in the he hot weather rather than wait until the winter is upon us....
