Chirping
My hen is about a year and a half. She has looked like this for over six months now. At first, I suspected she was just molting, but that's definitely not the case for how long it has been going on. We do have a rooster, and although his mounting her doesn't help the situation, she was looking like this before he even came along.
I've tried blue kote, no peck ointment, Neosporin, feather fixer feed, extra protein (mainly through mealworms), tried separating her (in case it was a pecking issue)...i'I out of ideas short of having her wear an apron. Any ideas and advice, friends?
