Delilah would probably be quite humiliated that I shared that pic of her. She's this bird - attacking DDs lunch.View attachment 1179941

I'm so glad it's not just at my house!

I have a couple of EEs that are frightening...

Do they lose their beards when they molt?

My molting EE just looks like a naked neck...and she is super stinkery right now. She snapped at me when i wouldn't let her sleep in a nesting box.

You need to build yourself a plucker. @Chaos18 built himself one; he could give you some ideas, or there should be some on youtube.

I really do need to.
