stress molt

High protein foods help hens during a molt period. Things like cooked eggs, tinned tuna, a little dry cat food, mealworms, and meat scraps are all good sources of protein, but don't feed too much of it. A little ACV (apple cider vinegar) in their drink water will help with the stress. Add 2-5 tablespoons to a gallon water and give them that for a few days. See if you can get an organic, unfiltered type (Braggs I believe is the brand of choice in the US) to get the maximum benefit.
