I hadnt! I defintely should enter her because poor thing looks terrible. She even has shreds of long feathers scattered in a few places that looks like long hairs among the "stubble"...she's not ready for any beauty contest quite yet. And before that she had gorgeous reddish feathers!
Some of mine need a bath. One of my special needs chickens leaned against a freshly painted wall. She is a faverolle with one side currently green. And a few others seem to have dirty bottoms. But it is an ordeal!! I would think once a week.plenty but with baldness i'd be a bit worried about getting cold.
save your bones from 'chicken or turkey' instead of buying cat food. just make sure you pick up the carcasses, it attracts vermin. they actually love it, and remember, they are omnivores!
I will do that!
I just looked at some of the pics and they are hilarious...feel much better about Miss Penny's temperary look!
Yes, it does! When i walked in the coop, i just stared at the feathers for moment, quickly went outside and counted my chickens..then came back in coop to stare some more and try to figure out what had happened.
