    Is there a loophole where shooting hawks is legal?

    All birds of prey are federally protected. Even possession of their feathers is a crime.

    Zero Eggs!😫

    Normal to slow down, check for new hidding spots. My girls like to put them under the Daisy bush when I am not looking.

    Are these white leghorns close to laying?

    Combs and earlobes are too pale. You and another month or so to go.

    Thin Molting Hen with Squishy Crop

    She needs to be wormed and fed some high protein feed. I also feed canned tuna in water, not oil. They love it and it helps with a difficult molt. If you have a tractor supply near you the feed I use is called feather fixer. If you can't find that, meat bird finishing food will work.

    She is a standard size. She is six months old and the same size as my adult Easter Eggers. She is currently not cooperating with another photo. What small amount of comb she does have is two rows of red.
