This morning I thought I would give the girls some fish. A bit of extra protein might help with growing feathers.<\/p>\n

I am finding a handful of Speckles feathers in the run every time I go in and yet she doesn’t look any different. Butterscotch has been very vocal today and was inspecting the nest boxes. It has been a week since she stopped being broody so she may be about to start laying again. Her pin feathers are growing noticeably.<\/p>\n
