Ended Post Your Best (Worst) Chicken Molt Pictures - 2023

[Farmgirl805]

I have one Speckled Sussex who is looking TERRIBLE and I actually logged in to BYC today to maybe check some threads, ask some questions … maybe my girl just needs her picture taken for the BYC pageant and she’ll be ok after that?

This is Goldie she is a 9 month old gold laced Wyandotte. I didn’t expect her to molt this year because she is so young, but she stoped laying about a month ago and her comb and wattles started to shrink. The past few days she has been dropping feathers like crazy. Several of my 9 month old girls are going through various stages of molt but Goldie is doing it the best/wost

Love this breed, such gorgeous feathers. She will be a beauty when she's finished with her molt. ❤ Thanks for entering!

Our poor Easter egger (was sold as an Americana) looks so unwell poor old girl. I wanna say she’s 6 now, maybe 7 . My yard also constantly looks like someone was mauled.

She looks pretty good for a senior gal, I bet she's gorgeous when done molting. ❤ Thanks for entering!

She’s very pretty once her feathers come back. At least she’s always been one to blow all her feathers at once so I’m never shocked when she looks like this.

I’ll have to come back and update everyone when she’s grown her feathers back.
