Growing a whole new set of feathers is hard work. 🐔

During molt season, chickens need extra protein and the right amino acids to support healthy feather development.

That's why Dr. Mikayla recommends FlockLeader's Shine, a high-protein functional treat formulated with amino acids that support feather growth. For an additional protein boost, Freedom Fly can also be added to the menu.

Don't panic. 🐔

Missing feathers? Egg production slowing down? Looking a little rough?

Molt season can make even healthy birds look completely different. As chickens grow new feathers, their bodies need extra protein to support the process.

That's why many chicken keepers increase dietary protein during molt season. Shine provides the extra protein birds need while growing a new set of feathers.

Fun fact: Feathers make up about 7% of a chicken's body weight. 🐔

Now imagine replacing all of them.

That's exactly what happens during molt season, which is one reason chickens need extra protein while growing a whole new set of feathers.

Dr. Mikayla explains why nutrition during molt can affect feather quality and even egg production after molt is complete.

Ever noticed a hen pulling out her own feathers? 🥚🐔

At first glance, it might look concerning, but for Harriet, a Bantam hen who's gone broody, it's all part of the job. By plucking some of her feathers, she's creating a warm, direct connection with the eggs tucked beneath her.

This spooky season... what scares chicken keepers most? 👻🐔

We joke about predators, mystery feathers, and forgetting to close the coop door, but the truth is we worry because we care.

Our flocks depend on us, and every chicken keeper knows the responsibility that comes with keeping birds healthy, safe, and happy.

❤️ We worry because we care.
🐔 Enjoy your flock.
🎃 Leave the scares for Halloween.

One day... ✨🐔

A week later... 😳

Molt season can be rough.

Growing new feathers takes a tremendous amount of energy, and some chickens can look dramatically different while they're going through it.

Recover 911 helps support birds during stressful times with vitamins, electrolytes, and probiotics when their bodies are working overtime.

Missing feathers? Egg production slowing down? Looking a little rough? 🐔

Don't panic. Molt season is a normal part of a chicken's life.

As chickens shed old feathers and grow new ones, their bodies need extra nutrients to support all that new feather growth. That's why Dr. Mikayla recommends paying special attention to protein during molt season.

Want the benefits of bees without becoming a beekeeper? 🐝🍯

Danessa found a creative solution. Instead of managing hives herself, she partnered with a local beekeeper who keeps and maintains the bees while her property benefits from pollination, and occasionally, a little extra honey.

The chickens understood the assignment. 🎃🐔

Three days after Bianca turned a pumpkin into a chicken-friendly Halloween project, the flock had completely transformed it into something straight out of a scary movie. 😅

The best part? They had a blast doing it.

POV: You're watching your chickens drink water. 🍷🐔

Raises head.

Opens beak.

"Notes of hose water with a lingering mineral finish."

Why do chickens look like they're evaluating a vintage instead of taking a drink? 😂
