Chickens Are Molting - We Want Your Pics!
It's that time of year again where our birds start their metamorphosis into... well, okay, they don't turn into anything, but it sure is interesting to see them go through their molting process and leaving feathers all over the place!
For more information on your flock's annual molt, see here:
- What Happens When Chickens Molt?
- Chickens Loosing Feathers? Managing Your Flock's Molt
- Molting- Your Flock's Seasonal Shedding
- DISCUSSION: For the new folks that haven't experienced a molt yet.
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!
Prizes:
The first place winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to the BYC Store and the second place winner will receive a free 6 month Premium Feather Membership for themselves or a friend.
The rules are simple too:
- Must be your chicken
- 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.)
Here is the winner of our previous contest
