I was moving some birds around this morning. This is that first bird that has finished its moult. Hopefully they all turn out as nice as her.

Cheers Ian

Looks good Ian - you're going well to have one through the moult already.

My young birds are only just getting into it, and probably still have quite a lot to go. The unpredictable weather down our way isn't helping things along either.

Hi Ben, yes my birds are all at varying stages. I have 3 that are just about finished, 5 that are about half way through and 5 that are still uncoloured.

Cheers Ian

Am I missing something? I can only see the undertail.

No sorry tiaris, your not missing anything. As a caught her up I thought she had nice long tail feathers so I got a photo of it.

Cheers Ian

I was in the same boat as Tiaris ,garyh

Apologies for the quality of the photo.

Thank you for this. I was not aware that hen's could get barbs on their tail. Very interesting!

Nice young hen ,wish mine were that well colored,garyh

None of mine have enough coloured feathers to cover a $2 coin. And The last of last seasons chicks is almost fully coloured. Is it something on the west coast?
