As you can tell, I filmed for this video right around when winter started. I realize in the video I am talking like winter is just setting in. I apologize for the confusion. However, I still think the information will always apply. Let me know what other topics we should talk about! Thanks for watching

Wow! I thought mine looked rough. Some of them looked plum pitiful. Mine molted in December. I fed them regular food, chopped hot dogs and dried bugs. And wild bird food . They came through fine. ❤

Mine are sad. I have 3 out of 7 molting. I cannot believe how many feathers there are on the ground. I try to keep it up but it's hard.

Mine are molting in April May. Give them meal worms once a week I use apple cider vinegar to their water.

Heya, thank you for the educative video. I got 2 Heritage hens & 4 Hyline’s. One of my heritage hen called spotty has speckles on her feathers for more than 6 months. Am confused, if this is moulting or not. She does go broody often & eventually another same breed whose called whity gets broody. But today I noticed spotty just above near tail area some feathers were missing. feathers scattered in roost area. 2 daps before I saw lots of her feathers scattered in the coop & I thought May be other hen’s are pecking the spotty the speckled one. And my hen didn’t look anything like the moulting hen examples that you showed in your video. Please advise. Thank you. God Bless

Is there any value or use in the old feathers or should they just be put in the garbage?

Why can’t chicken fly for long distances? Where wild chickens before being domesticated able to fly long distances? Just curious. I’ve been thinking about getting some chickens. In my town you’re allowed 5 chickens but no roosters. Do chickens do well without a rooster in the flock?

I have a bird doing it now in February it's been in the 50s with a short cold snap. I'm just a bit worried it's something else. But I can't find anything wrong

Same here, I was a little concerned something was going on with one of mine but, after many videos and research, I am positive now it's just a molt. Hope your girl is all right, I'm sure she will be! 🪶

Please be careful, that is very dangerous and chickens do not need supplemental heat.

@@Damselfly54315 are you saying you have it because you have chicks? I had a heat lamp when I got my first flock of baby chicks, it fell down and I could have burned my house down, it started to melt parts of their brooder. Have you ever heard of a brooder plate? I bought one of those they are excellent and safe! God bless you, your family and your chickens. If I can save somebody from the horror stories of a chicken heat lamp burning down their house with their kids in it or loosing their flock and livestock to barn fires I will. They really are scary.
