how has the moult treated you?

Most of mine look as though they've been through a shredder - I've never seen so many bald bottoms and neck! I have enough feathers to make a duvet.

Mine have been moulting on and off for about four months, they are both looking bald around the head but nowhere else. The last few weeks they have laid about half their normal amount of eggs.

My two Orpingtons have been moulting.  My blue - Molly has been moulting for some time and is now beginning to fill out with feathers now.  However, no eggs at all yet.  My Buff has been off lay for weeks now and has been moulting for about a fortnight.  It is so strange to see them so scrawny, especially as Orps are usually so big and fluffy.

my girls are looking alert but tired. and yes it looks like giant pillow fights have taken place.

one of my 2 orpingtons went broody and hasn't come back into lay in the last 2 months and the other, has now started laying again but they are either mostly soft shelled, tiny or once in a blue moon - huge.

the 4 jerseys and 4 brahmas haven't laid in about 5 weeks and are in various stages of defeathering and 4 of the hybrids are yet to come back into lay. my speckled sussex looks like a cheap duster!

the eggs are in such high demand that whatever is laid is sold within hours and we haven't eaten an egg in 2 months!

What am I missing, my 4 arent moulting at all !!!

this is my first year of a proper moult too.

the first year they didn't moult too much and i just put it down to the girls not coming into lay until late september. last year they all had partial moults from the stress of being moved back and forth after my father's death so this is all kind of new to me too
