Ugliest Molting Hen...

I do believe I've ever had on my farm, lol

Check this poor girl out.  

And You Think YOUR Havin A Bad Hair Day!?!?

I snapped so many pics of her this evening when I took the scarp bucket out to the chickens... I just couldnt stop myself.  She better hurry and grow her feathers back or shes gonna freeze this winter. 

Awww... I bet she hates standin by the girls that already molted and have new pretty feathers now :(

Cinnamon & Sugar 2011 Molt

Poor girls are goin through their yearly molt, right on time.

They look pitiful & it looks painful.

Actually alot of my girls are molting right now and I've had a huge drop in my egg supply... some days I'm only gettin 3, 5 maybe 9 eggs from almost 30 hens & 2 duck hens (havent seen a duck eggs in weeks, month). Hope they get back to layin soon, we need eggs! I do have 6 pullets that should start layin any day. I dont think they have started yet, I havent caught any in the nest boxes. Then my other 2 duck hens should start layin any day now too.
