Hattie's New Feathers

I was going on about Hattie's new feathers this morning. I got a photo of her just now. Check out the new lavender feathers compared to the old grey ones.

If anyone notices any missing posts please let me know. They have rebuilt the thread and hopefully everything is there. Please let me know if you notice something isn't correct.

I guess they missed my post (I was going to announce who I will share my million dollar lottery ticket winnings with) yes I’m kidding.

At the other extreme this butt is not fluffy at all. To add to her moulting problems, her sister, or at least close relative, has been pecking lumps out of this ones rear end. Yesterday evening I watched as a couple of other hens had a peck as well. Her bum was a bit bloody and sore when she went off to roost. I went back to the allotment at about 9pm when it was dark and quiet, dissinfected her bum and one of the others who had also had blood drawn, slapped a cream I brought with me from Spain on her bum.
I also got Henry's missis off her perch and cleaned her vent up a bit. It was a bit of a mess under the feathers.

In the second picture is the hen who I've been very worried about, but who despite having an eye problem, which I'm trying to help with atm, is very fiesty and one of the first to come to greet me when I arrive. I sat her on my lap to give her the eye drops and she was very well behaved. I do hope she makes it through the winter at least.

Luna doesn't have the fluffiest butt of them all but @ least she didn't walk away in a huff!

He is beautiful, and full of so much personality! He amazes me with everything he does! Turken is the name of the Naked Necks (like Who Dat's Trump - just as awesome)

I learned the breed as Churkey first.

Her photon is the best in the group. She has it down with that camera.

As opposed to the neutron?
