Re: its that time

Yea its starting in my yard the last two weeks, I've been seing a few wing feathers laying around lately. We've not had any warm weather as of yet. I will be starting to adjust the feed for the"stress" the bird go through when moulting to help them threw the process. It seems to early this year?

I think you have to keep them on the shade.

Re: its that time

our birds who arent in the shade are also starting to drop wing feathers, probably 2 or 3 weeks in now.
