I guess I could look for Miss Paula's "apron". She wore it this past Spring to cover that embarrassing bald spot from this rooster!

I was thinking the same thing about being itchy. I was scratching all over just looking at the pics. EEP!

myhensanme,
Your chicken looks chilly! But what made me smile the most was seeing your muddy run; I'm so glad I'm not the only one battling the mud this season. Enough rain, already!!

Usually in the fall just before cold sets in. I have heard it explained to me as they get their new nice feathers just before the cold weather when they need it most. Makes sense to me. Mine went into their first molt around 1 yr old, but it depends on when they were born. My oldest 6 were born in October, and they started to molt between Sept and Dec of the following year. My youngest ones were born this past March and April and none are molting as of yet and honestly, I don't expect them to molt this year since they are pretty young still (but we'll see).

Speaking as someone who has to deal with photo releases as part of my job, this one really tickled my funny bone for some reason XD
