Ended Official BYC Contest - Post your best (worst) chicken molt pics!

[sumi]

Hello, @sumi can I post several pictures of the same hen?Earlier this year,in January or February,I took a picture of my chicken,Gracie gray,then posted it in this thread.She is molting later in this year,too.Just wondering if I can post her twice or not.

Sure!

This hen is in the other breeds category. She's a Barred Rock that's having a really rough molt.

This is Blondie, a golden comet and this I should her first molt. Not as bad a second some of the others but living in upstate NY and already having single digits, it's time feathers grow. Her buddy in the background is well on her way to a nasty molt too.

(All other breeds)

Chickens Are Molting - We Want Your Pics!​

The contest is simple: Post pictures of your birds in the worst part of their molt. Once we're past the molting season our esteemed panel of judges will pick a loser... er... winner!

We will have two categories:

The rules are simple too:

1. Must be your chicken
2. Must be a picture taken THIS YEAR, so probably within the last few weeks and over the next couple months (depending on your climate, birds, etc.)
3. Must say which category you're entering in

Good luck to you and your ugly... er.. molting chickens!

All Other Breeds category:
This is Lucy, a Welsummer, taken today. I have a few from different angles.
