Are those feathers around her in the air? ACTIVELY flying off of her? Lol! Poor thing!

YES!

Elanor's first molt was not nearly as bad as some, but she did look like she had a bad barber experience:

"All Other Breeds" buff brahma bantam pullet, about 25 weeks old, October 2013.

This is one of my Black Ameraucana hens who always has the most terrible molts... you can see that she's quite beautiful when fully feathered! Please enter her in the regular group.

I really hope someone makes knitted jumpers as my chickens have all started to moult now and I couldnt bear to see them running around like that poor girl - especially now its getting colder.
