So it appears 4 of my 5 hens are molting. There are feathers all over the coop and I see the new feathers coming in, but my questions is how long does molting typically last? It is cold here in upstate NY and without their feathers to keep them warm, I'm worried about them staying warm enough. Also, I haven't had any eggs in about 3-4 weeks so I'm hoping the wuicker they finish their molt the sooner I'll be back in eggs. What is the longest molt your girls have gone through?
