Also Kenzie is in town and helps answer questions. We also break out eggs that have been egg glassed the last time Kenzie was here 5 months ago and fry them up and eat them. Find out how they tasted!
Plus an important note about Chickenguard automatic chicken doors purchased from us in June and July of 2022.

Live from Creedmoor, NC, Video Chicken Live is a fun and informative show about all things chickens and coops. Matt, Kristen, and Ingrid answer your questions.
This episode deals with molting. It's during late summer into fall (and sometime even in winter) when your chickens may start to molt. Molting is a natural process where birds lose some to almost all of their feathers and replace them with new ones. Some chickens will have a heavy molt, while others will have a light one that you may not even notice.
During this time, it's advisable to give your flock access to extra protein to help regrow feathers. This can be black oil sunflower seeds, scrambled eggs, tuna, or extra mealworms.
Chickens that are molting don't want to be handled and their pin feathers (where new feathers grow out of) will actually make it uncomfortable for them. We tackle what to expect, how long it can take, and how you can help your birds during this time.

Chicken math also involves drastically undercounting the amount of chickens you have to avoid judgement or penalties.
