When my Yardbirds start to molt I give them dry cat food, it's very high in protein and that helps them get through molting a lot faster, I did a video on your nest boxes ways back, I had messaged you about it, I did give you" The Practical Prepper " and blackdogindy credit in the show more section, you have a nice channel thank you for sharing.

Yankee, good idea on the cat food. I hear it works but for us it didn't work near as well and the food we found. I have a friend who breeds and shows chickens and he had us looking for parasites which we did not find and he has used cat food as well. Not sure why it didn't for us but the other worked fantastic.

Thanks for the reply, I know over the years I've seen a lot of molting seasons and I think chickens all Molt a bit diff, I 'v had some that you hardly tell they did, others just have a harder time with it, the one thing I try to do in the fall about a month before molting I step up to higher proteins rather its cat food supplemented with their regular fed or a higher protein feed like you used, getting that jump makes a big difference, nice talking with you, wishing you the best growing season.
