She's molting. Won't she be cold?

[circlark]

My lovely 18-month old RIR Mary is molting like crazy, with bare patches all over. (with the pointy new feathers coming in, she's more Porcupine than Chicken) She sleeps with her (still-feathered) sisters in a coop outside that is protected from wind, but here in Pennsylvania, we're getting into the 20's at night. She must be so cold!

Do I need to bring her in at night? Or do I simply supplement her feed with herbs and extra protein?
I've also read about giving them a water bath to splash in, but with highs in the 50's, I don't want to do that now, right?

Thanks!

I don't have the answer . But without those feathers that baby's cold. Those feathers are her jacket. Someone here can help you.

I had that same situation last year. I got someone here to make me a little chicken sweater, like a saddle, only lined with fleece, with a windproof exterior... she did fine until she got eaten by the fox.
