Here, it is that time of year. Many of my birds and my chicken friend's birds are molting too. Some go through light molts where you can hardly tell they're molting and others go through harder molts where it is very evident they are molting. One of my birds when through a very hard molt recently and lost nearly all of her feathers. I nicknamed her baldy. Her feathers are coming back in nicely now. My roosters may help in the molt when they mount the girls but the feathers are coming out anyway because they are molting. Out of 100 layers right now I'm only getting around 2 dozen eggs a day where normally I get around 7 dozen eggs a day.
