Hi All! I've got a buff orpington and I recently noticed that from her neck down she is starting to turn from a nice yellow color to now almost white. Has anyone ever seen this before? She is healthy and seems to be eating, drinking and laying normal. Any ideas?! I have posted a couple of pictures. Her neck is still "mustard yellow" and that's what her entire body used to be. Now her body is getting lighter and lighter, almost a white/cream color.

First of all, she is beautiful. Second, it is not unusual for chickens to change colors after a molt. If you did not change her feed or anything like that, then I would guess it is just a molting thing. No worries.
