RE: [CHICKENS-101] molting buff op

 

> I have yellow and white buff opender feathers everywhere. any idea she
is only two. They break when i pick her up. I treated her for mites.

giver her some extra protein with her food, like some soaked dog or cat
food, Molting is normal and if she is two years old it's her first molt as
an adult, It can take a few months until all the new feathers come in, for
a while they look really raggedy, but once they have their new feathers
they look just gorgeous, until next year when they molt again.
