Hi all,
I have a sweet Friend who is waiting for fertilised eggs to arrive by post. they are 2 weeks late!
Here is the email she sent me. any advice would be appreciated!
We have been waiting for these eggs to arrive for 2 weeks so the broody has been sitting waiting on dummy eggs until they arrive.
Has anyone seen the feather loss before???

Hi Helen,
Just wanted to know, one of the girls is losing her feathers ( alot!) and she talks alot from her house. More so when the other girls go out to eat. Now I'm thinking that this is from stress for not yet having any chicks, would that be right?
I will get some dog food for them like you suggested as they are looking very skinny! I do put the food in their house with them because i am worried they are losing to much weight.
Thank you so much
