Molting
Molting is a natural process whereby laying birds will cease egg production and lose feathers from their neck, breast and back areas for a few weeks to a few months. Molting occurs most often in natural environments where the birds are exposed to natural day lengths. Decreasing length of day light in the fall will trigger the onset of molt. It is natures way of providing laying birds a rest period prior to the stimulus for maximum reproductive performance in the spring. Molting is eliminated in commercial flocks by providing long day lengths using artificial lights for approximately 14 hours every day. Many backyard flocks are kept under natural day light fluctuations and thus molting can be a common cause of feather loss.
If the feather loss occurs in the fall or winter and only lasts for a few months before new feathers are observed, it is likely your birds have gone through a natural molt. Molting is not something to be concerned about unless you want your birds to continue laying in the fall and winter.
Disease and Stress
Unhealthy birds or birds that are under stressful conditions may also exhibit feather loss. Using best management practices and observing your birds for possible disease conditions can be important for your flock. Stressful conditions such as heat, cold, disease, and lack of adequate amounts of feed and water can result in feather loss and poor feather quality with your birds. Good management is always important, and feather loss maybe an indicator needed improvements in management. It is important for your birds to have good quality feathering. Providing good management programs, adequate feed and water and minimizing stressful conditions in your flocks will help assure strong feathers and a heathy flock.
