    Molting or lice

    I have 5 hens we got may 2020. This one seems to be molting or I wonder if the white specks are something else. When I took pics today, seemed to be less. Hope you all can give me some ideaa

    Bullied or Disease

    One of my 5 three year old hens was being severely bullied and isolated. There are let out and roam our large fenced in yard with lots of places to hide.

    Staying out in the cold?!?

    Thanks for all the great suggestions. We took their roost out of the run, added a roost inside and a small red light. They go in now on their own and all is well!

    Staying out in the cold?!?

    Thanks! They are safe within the enclosure. The coop is not heated, but warmer than 10-20 degrees outside!

    Staying out in the cold?!?

    Whoa - that’s cold! They are safe within the enclosure, roosting right next to the coop.

    Staying out in the cold?!?

    They are roosting right outside the coop door, but still within the enclosed run. They go inside the coop once a day to lay an egg.
