I have an eight week old pullet who is on the mend from coccidiosis. Because she had several days where she did not eat, she is now molting. But I’m noticing she’s very itchy and scratching at herself, and that there is what looks like dandruff on her feathers… And also a sort of a dark version of it all over the paper towels she’s on. It doesn’t look like any sort of insect (it doesn’t move). So I’m assuming it’s detritus of molting?
Anything I should do so she’s less itchy? I’m trying not to stress her out, since she has weight to gain and is still unsteady on her feet, though she’s much better than she was a few days ago! Thanks.
