    Balding chicken in freezing weather

    Yes, definitely a late molt, we had crazy temps here, first warm then freezing. I do not handle her at all as I know it is painful for them. I do not provide extra light in coop. Thank you

    Fox killed my chicken, rooster did nothing?

    I beg to differ, I had 2 Roosters killed by a fox within a month of each other. They died saving their girls, not one chicken down. I lost 2 good beautiful boys. Plymouth Bard Rock I had only a year and Rhode Island Red not even a month
