X2 I clean my coops every day and now that they are molting, I clean the feathers too. I don't think it matters one way or another, it is just me that likes to keep the chicken yard as tidy as possible. I have 18 hens and pullets and 2 roosters, thank goodness not all are molting but they will next year when my pullets turn over a year old.I do. Not because my chickens molt a lot, but because whenever I clean their coop, I just like doing a proper job of it. So when I am cleaning it, all the feathers get cleaned up too.
