Tax time. Marans Miss Plumbus is a beautician. Every day, Hazel and Lorraine stand in front of her for preening. Lately, molting Marans Merle has been extra interested in Plumbus' soothing services.
Next, Speckled Sussex Peck is much more white after her 2nd molt at 20 months. I've read they become more speckly as they age, but has anyone else seen a change this dramatic?
Before & after. The feathers are still growing in, but they're definitely white.
