Did you know that chickens drop their old feathers and grow new ones back? This typically happens in the fall or spring! During this time, you might notice a decrease in egg laying, as they are putting all their energy into looking beautiful again! You can help them through their molt quicker by feeding them treats like these: •Meal worms •Soldier fly larva •Fermented feed •Sunflower seeds/leaves •Pumpkin seeds •Meat (yes, chickens love meat) •Scrambled eggs #homestead #farm #pnw #chickens #gard
