Feather Eater

Fingers crossed that it is all good and that one that have huge bald spots get some feathers for winter. Poor things. I may have to take up knitting ;)

Feather Eater

Over the winter my chickens pecked each other and most have bald spots that I hope fill in once they are done molting. Yesterday I noticed one checked pulling feathers out if another one and eating it. How do I stop this. They get crumble organic layer, Blackoil sunflowers, lettuce / spinach daily. ...
