Hello,
I got two new beautiful 2 year old Cochin hens, they came to me with all their feathers.
However they came into my group and been pecked at (I know it is the pecking order) however... As she came she has lost a lot of feathers on her chest and some of her skin looks as if she has been bleeding and plucked alive.
The two girls don't peck back as such and show the language "ok, your in charge just stop pecking me and I will get out of your way"
All I would like to know is....
What is the best way to help her feathers grow back?
How long will it take to grow them back?
So far my girls and boys have...
-Dried grass and hay
-Mealworms on special occasions (changing weather generally)
-Grit
-Corn
-Pallets
-Plus bugs they find
