Hmm I wonder if our basically static weather might be contributing to her not molting yet. It's always 85 here and the big difference between seasons is just the rainfall...
No real answer but posting to keep an eye on this.
One of our girls spends most of the day in the day in the pond - fishing and splashing about. But her feathers stay looking great. Does he get a wet look when it rains too, or just extended time in the pond
She has molted, and the good looking feathers on her do ok in the weather, but she didn't do a full molt. Her wing feathers are original from when we got her....

We are in Hawaii, and the climate is around 85 every day with a little more rain in the winter season that is coming...
One of my girls has been having trouble with her eggs lately and I wanted to see if anyone could help me figure out what's wrong with her and how to fix it. She is usually very consistent, but the last couple days have been no egg days followed by a soft shell yesterday, and today I found her...
