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

This looks more like damage from an overzealous rooster. I have many hens with bare backs from young overzealous roosters. Be sure to take the sharp points off the rooster's spurs or your hens will have tears in their skin that other chickens will peck at and turn into horrible sores.

Lol! I'll play! This is Tucks, she's an 16 month old faverolles and she use to look like this...

Now she's sporting this look.

Entering into all other breeds.
